Finance Bill 2024: Committee and Remaining Stages (5 Nov 2024)

Michael Healy-Rae: There is no time as good as the present for gauging public opinion. I have been canvassing and knocking on people's doors and meeting them in their places of work. The one thing that is coming back - I am sure the Minister will be very interested in this, and I presume he is hearing it himself - is that people can pick good and bad out of the budget but the one thing that an awful lot of...

Finance Bill 2024: Committee and Remaining Stages (5 Nov 2024)

Michael Healy-Rae: I will put on the record what was actually said. I would like to think that my memory is fairly sharp. At the time it was said across the floor of this House, obviously not to the Minister but to the person in charge at the time, that he was not going far enough, fast enough. This was with regard to taxation on carbon. That was what Sinn Féin said at the time. That must be...

Finance Bill 2024: Committee and Remaining Stages (5 Nov 2024)

Michael Healy-Rae: On carbon tax, Sinn Féin said the Government was not going far enough, quick enough, and that is on the record of the Dáil. I would take that back if I were wrong but it is on the record of the Dáil that the leader of the Sinn Féin Party said at that time that the Government was not putting enough tax on people. Sinn Féin then came in here complaining about it...

Finance Bill 2024: Committee and Remaining Stages (5 Nov 2024)

Michael Healy-Rae: At present, when people look at the tax take out of their earnings they hurt very badly. When they go to the petrol pumps they hurt very badly because it is all tax, tax and more tax. As far as I can see, the Government is doing everything it can to penalise workers, to stop enterprise and to close down businesses. We asked - we actually begged - on behalf of people involved in business,...

Finance Bill 2024: Committee and Remaining Stages (5 Nov 2024)

Pearse Doherty: I have submitted many amendments to the Bill. I am wondering why I went through this 274-page document in detail given that the guillotine is looming. I regret that. The Bill should never have been brought out of committee. We should have dealt with the Bill in committee. We have always facilitated the Government in respect of the passage of the legislation. Even when the Government of...
