Finance Bill 2003 [ Certified Money Bill ] : Committee and Remaining Stages.

 

This relief has fallen into disuse, although if memory serves, the Minister has made clear that he favours the principle of doing something with it. This recommendation is being brought forward as a way of giving recognition and financial support to those who look after a relative with a disability or a child with particular medical difficulties. As matters stand, a tax credit of only €60 per year is given, but we should look to improve the matter over time, if the public funds allow us to do so.
