Michael McGrath (Cork South Central, Fianna Fail) | Oireachtas source

I acknowledge that Sinn Féin did not advocate that people should not pay the tax, because that is a fact. However, with senior figures in Sinn Féin saying publicly that they intended not to pay the tax, it gave comfort to others of far fewer means not to pay the tax as well. Those people will now have to pay a great deal more money to clear their taxation liabilities-----
