John Cregan
Question:254 Mr. Cregan asked the Minister for Finance if he will consider changes to stamp duty due to the perceived view that it is a tax on freedom of movement, is a disincentive against trading up and an unfair tax in settled and established areas; if he will consider alternations to allow the tax rate on that bracket only rather than on full sale value; if he will consider a further increase in threshold; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
