Pat Rabbitte (Dublin South West, Labour) | Oireachtas source

Some colleagues representing Dublin constituencies would say that people from south Tipperary and other provincial constituencies get a better deal under the valuation system than Dubliners. However, there had to be a valuation methodology settled on and the one chosen is based on market value. It is right that the efficacy of the collection system should not be in question and that everybody who is able to make a contribution does so. There is a system of voluntary deferral for those who cannot make a contribution as well as a system of exemptions. Those Deputies who followed the progress of the Bill through the House will know the details of that.
