Seanad debates

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

 

It is my intention to complete the process of having a single standard rate band on the basis of equity. I will not go over the debate again. I know Senator McDowell has different views on this issue, as have some people in my party. There are Deputies and Senators in Senator Higgins's party who support me privately and others who oppose violently. As I said in that great debate many years ago, I did not think this issue would set off such a wide-ranging debate.
