302. To ask the Minister for Finance if he has received a pre-budget submission from the Asthma Society of Ireland; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [30540/15]

I can confirm that a submission from the Asthma Society of Ireland has been received.  

To date my Department has received in the order of 400 Pre-Budget Submissions from a wide range of groups and individuals. These are being considered by the relevant officials in the context of Budget and Finance Bill preparation.

However the Deputy will be aware that it is not the practice of the Minister for Finance to discuss the details of measures which may be under consideration as part of the Budget and Finance Bill.
