Question:

14 Mr. Wall asked the Minister for Finance the way in which it is intended to review the treatment of work related expenses and benefits for workers arising from the commitment given in the Programme for Prosperity and Fairness; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [9367/00]

Minister for Finance (Mr. McCreevy): The precise mechanism for carrying out the review of the tax treatment of work related expenses has not, as yet, been determined. I expect discussions will take place shortly between the appropriate parties including the Revenue Commissioners, ICTU and IBEC to establish the appropriate review mechanism.
