Finance Bill 2025: Report and Final Stages
Dail Éireann — 2025-11-26
============================================================

Pearse Doherty (SF), Donegal

The Minister did not have to bring forward other amendments in respect of the SFT. The Government has legislated for it to increase every year. That is why people are getting this €320,000 tax cut from Fine Gael. I must have missed that promise the Minister made. Which plinth was he standing on? During which press occasion during the general election campaign did he tell people he would provide a €320,000 tax break to people who have gold-plated pensions? I did not see anything like that in the run-up to the election.
