Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 17 November 2004
183 Mr. Lowry asked the Minister for Finance if his attention has been drawn to the work done by the SIMI in regard to the overall net effect of a VRT reduction; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [29051/04]
View answerA pre-budget submission from SIMI has been received which like all other pre-budget submissions will be considered in the context of preparations for the forthcoming budget and Finance Bill. It has been the practice of successive Ministers for Finance not to comment at this time on what may, or may not, be contained in a forthcoming budget and I do not intend to depart from this approach.
