I move recommendation No. 6:

In page 8, between lines 5 and 6, to insert the following:

Report on variable rate of Vacant Homes Tax linked to property price inflation

7.The Minister shall, within three months of the passing of this Act, lay before both Houses of the Oireachtas a report on options for applying a variable rate of Vacant Homes Tax, which varies annually and is linked to annual residential property price inflation data as recorded by the Residential Tenancies Board, with particular assessment of the revenue-raising potential of such a measure, and its potential deterrent effect to property hoarding.”.
