Finance (No. 2) Bill 2008: Report Stage (Resumed) and Final Stage
6:00 pm
Kieran O'Donnell (Limerick East, Fine Gael)
I will make allowances for that. This section deals with Seveso sites in urban dockland areas which are subject to local area plans. It does not provide for Seveso sites which are located in non-urban dockland areas. That strikes me as anti-competitive. If an operation is required to relocate from a Seveso site in an area other than docklands, it should be given the same tax breaks. That is the essential point being put across in the correspondence we are receiving on the matter. I would like to hear the Minister's opinion of this straightforward point.
