Financial Resolution No. 3: Income Tax
7:00 pm
Alan Shatter (Dublin South, Fine Gael)
I will conclude on this point. The 1% levy is misconceived. The Government should examine how it will impact on young people, including children, earning small sums of money to make ends meet in circumstances where no one could have envisaged they would fall into the tax net. Nonetheless, they will now be brought into the net by this levy.
