The Government has reiterated its commitment to no increases in income tax or USC rates post-pandemic, the Minister for State at the Department of Health and local Fine Gael TD Frank Feighan has said.
“As we emerge from the pandemic and return to normality and economic growth, the last thing we need is higher taxes on income, business or savings for people in Roscommon.
“There will be no increases in income tax or USC rates. We won’t see increases on tax on business, on people’s savings, and far from increasing income tax, we are going to index income tax bans.
“Fewer people now will end up in the higher income tax band – this is a solid a commitment in the Programme for Government from Fine Gael.”
Minister Feighan continued: “This commitment in the Programme for Government is as solid as any measures regarding environmental issues such as greenhouse gas emissions
