Property Tax Review

Paschal Donohoe (Dublin Central, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source
What we have seen is a change in property prices. I am well aware of the consequences of all of that and of the concern it has caused for many regarding their future bills. The revaluation date is November. The bills are not due until next January. I will fulfil the commitment I have given to provide clarity and certainty on the matter.
Regarding the impact it has had on local government funding, I believe it has made an important and significant difference to local government funding but it is a decision of all councillors whether they want to increase or decrease it. That in turn has an effect on the resources available to their local authority.
