Financial Resolution No. 3: Capital Acquisitions Tax (1 Oct 2024)

Financial Resolution No. 3: Capital Acquisitions Tax (1 Oct 2024)

Danny Healy-Rae: I just want to say that it has to be remembered that 52% of mental health patients and people with mental health issues smoke. I welcome this increase in the limits or caps for inheritance tax. Deputy Paul Murphy complains about farmers or others getting the benefit of this. Going back in time, if you were the son or daughter who inherited a farm, you were considered to be made for...

Financial Resolution No. 3: Capital Acquisitions Tax (1 Oct 2024)

Michael Collins: We are talking about the inheritance tax here. I welcome the move we have made, but I do not think we have gone far enough. It is not that I believe we should be throwing confetti up in the air in the budget and have everybody grabbing it. However, people paid for these properties. Most likely it is a farm or whatever. They are paying back the bank for this property. They are paying the...

Financial Resolution No. 3: Capital Acquisitions Tax (1 Oct 2024)

Michael Healy-Rae: The Minister is going in the right direction, but he is not going far enough. If he studies the value of any type of property, be it a farm or any other asset, he will see that it is going up. At the end of the day, we have politicians in here who do not understand anything to do with farming, or with the value of land or any other type of property. They think that because a farm is worth...

Financial Resolution No. 3: Capital Acquisitions Tax (1 Oct 2024)

Thomas Pringle: I fully oppose this measure because it is wrong. It targets and benefits the people who least need it. I wonder how many farmers in the country will be affected by this. I do not know. I would like to hear from the Minister how many he expects to benefit. I see this tax break benefiting wealthy business people across the whole country. That is who this is aimed at and who it is meant to...

Financial Resolution No. 3: Capital Acquisitions Tax (1 Oct 2024)

Richard O'Donoghue: While I welcome this increase, it does not go far enough if you take into account the last three or four years of inflation and the cost of properties. Let us take as an example a cottage that somebody has left to a family member. Three or four years ago, before costs increased as a result of inflation, you could not give away a cottage for €25,000 or €30,000. Now they...

Financial Resolution No. 3: Capital Acquisitions Tax (1 Oct 2024)

Paul Murphy: We had a budget that trumpeted the fact it is giving a so-called baby boost to new parents of children of €420. That is it. It will not go very far. Now, before midnight - in effect, from tomorrow morning - we have got a measure which will give a very substantial baby boost to the wealthiest 3% of households worth €21,450. It is one of the great tricks of Fine Gael and...
