View answerI propose to take Questions Nos. 76 and 82 together.
It is assumed the Deputy is referring in both questions to the stamp duty consanguinity relief for non-residential property. I am advised by the Revenue Commissioners that the estimated cost to the Exchequer from extending the relief after 31 December 2014 would be in the region of €5 million.
