Michael Noonan (Limerick City, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source

The Deputy is familiar with the DIRT tax regime and also with what we intend to do on foot of the Finance Bill. It is not a policy decision; it is one that stems from a lack of resources to extend it fully. What the Minister of State, Deputy Eoghan Murphy, committed to on Committee Stage was referring the issue to the tax strategy group in mid-summer to get its advice on how we should remove an emerging anomaly and what would be the best way to approach it. If the Deputy agrees, we will proceed on that basis.
