Finance Bill 2020: Committee Stage
Pearse Doherty (Donegal, Sinn Fein) | Oireachtas source
Chairman, I have asked the Minister a question on two occasions now to give us the precedent of when he has done this.
I would ask him to stop trying to take us for fools, or at least to stop taking me for a fool. The Minister talks about income support. I can read section 202. It is an urgent needs support. The Minister's amendment to the Finance Bill asks us to rewind the clock. It mentions section 202, which only deals with an urgent needs payment. Will the Minister tell us how many times he has introduced amendments to rewind the clock to tax things in the past?
