While taxation policy is primarily the responsibility of my colleague the Minister of Finance, I work closely with him on taxation issues relating to my direct areas of responsibility.

Tax reliefs on trainer payments for those looking to get involved in a horse syndicate or partnership which supports Irish horse trainers and the horse racing industry is not something I am considering at present.
