I raise the issue of flat rate expenses, which are part of current taxation policy. The expenses cover the cost of equipment, tools, uniforms and stationery for some workers. Revenue recently referred to a review, which normally means cuts, and this is causing confusion and outrage among the many who claim the expenses. The cuts will have a severe impact, especially on low-paid workers. Has the Tánaiste an update on the proposed cuts or their nature?
