It is estimated that a 5% reduction on all incomes from €35,000 to €100,000, a 10% reduction on all incomes from €100,000 to €200,000 and a 20% reduction on all incomes greater than €200,000 if introduced would save a total of around €750m. Of this amount, around 75% would be accounted for by the reduction on incomes from €35,000 to €100,000.
