Seán Kyne
Question:20. Deputy Seán Kyne asked the Minister for Finance in the context of the review of the EU VAT directive and with regard to the campaign by MEPs, supported by national public representatives, if he will extend the favourable VAT terms which currently apply to marine-based rescue services to mountain rescue teams, and in consideration that the overall decision will be made by the relevant Council of Ministers, if he shares the view that predominantly voluntary mountain rescue teams here should be permitted an exemption from VAT for the procurement of equipment which is essential to their work; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
