Committee on Infrastructure and National Development Plan Delivery
IBEC Report on Infrastructure Ambition for a Competitive, Productive and Resilient Economy: Discussion
2:00 am
Mr. Gerard Brady:
No. It can provide a backstop for some projects, for critical projects, but we will need to have a steady tax base to be able to pay for all this. There is no doubt about it. We will need a stable tax base, and corporate tax has helped us in the last decade to have that, or to have a tax base capable of funding it. If we did not or if we had a fall-off in corporate tax, we would have to have a much different discussion.
