Mary Lou McDonald (Dublin Central, Sinn Fein) | Oireachtas source

Does the Taoiseach accept that the Government has made a mess of this issue? Does he accept that it is fundamentally unfair for families living in unfinished ghost estates to be hit with this tax? Can he indicate whether the Minister for the Environment, Community and Local Government, Deputy Phil Hogan, is revisiting the issue of ghost estates and the payment of this tax? Does he accept that many families in this State will be pushed over the edge, over their own fiscal cliff, by the Government's insistence on imposing this tax?
