Tax Collection
Dail Éireann — 2025-07-15
============================================================

Edward Timmins (FG), Wicklow

I welcome some aspects of the revised calculation of property tax and the calculation of the amount retained by counties. I recognise that the expected average increase of 5% is way below the inflation rate of 16.7% over the past four years. However, more needs to be done to make it a more equitable tax.
In particular, some counties do not retain all of the tax collected in their county.
