View answerIn advance of the Budget, as Minister for Finance I receive a large number of pre-budget submissions on a wide range of issues. As the Deputy will be aware, it is a longstanding practice that the Minister for Finance does not comment, in advance of the Budget, on any tax matters that might be the subject of Budget decisions.
