Finance (No. 2) Bill 2023: Committee Stage
Seanad Éireann — 2023-12-05
============================================================

Seán Kyne (FG), Cultural and Educational Panel

I thank the Minister for his response. I acknowledge the cut he made to the rate of USC this year. This was the first change in five years, and I welcome that. You could argue that there was a time before USC and maybe there will be a time without USC again. It was introduced as a temporary measure, but I accept the explanation the Minister has given. I will not press the recommendation.
