In the Minister's speech on budget 2023 in September, he announced a vacant homes tax, something for which most of us have been calling for years. It was welcome that he did announce a tax, but it was impossible to understand the rationale for setting it at merely 0.3% of the value of the home. Can he explain to us the rationale for setting it at that level? On what basis did he set the figure?
