Finance (No. 2) Bill 2008 (Certified Money Bill): Committee and Remaining Stages
4:00 pm
Jerry Buttimer (Fine Gael)
That amount is €2 million less than what the Government claimed it was taking during a matter on the Adjournment that I raised on 4 November. Why are we penalising children and families? I appreciate that children under the age of two are not included. However, we are imposing a further tax on families who have children over the age of two. Why did we pick that age?
