Concrete Block Levy: Discussion
Pádraig Mac Lochlainn (Donegal, Sinn Fein) | Oireachtas source
Something like 13 or 14 counties are potentially affected. God knows how many concrete manufacturers and quarries are involved in this. What was the sense when it was being said that this was going to cost the taxpayers €2.7 billion when this levy came in? The message was that taxpayers would have to pay for this. I know what my thoughts are on this but I want to know from the homeowners' perspectives if this is about turning the solidarity of the wider community in Ireland against homeowners? Is that the sense that is in Donegal?
