Joan Burton (Dublin West, Labour)

I move amendmentNo. 2:

In page 3, before section 1, to insert the following new section:

"PART 1

ANOMALIES IN THE STAMP DUTY REGIME

1.—It shall be a function of the Commission on Taxation to be established by the Government to examine anomalies in the stamp duty regime including the plight of families and individuals leaving properties such as apartments to trade up to an affordable family home.".

I begin by congratulating you, A Leas-Cheann Comhairle, on taking up your office. I hope you enjoy it.
