View answerThe estimated cost to the Exchequer of a 20% tax credit on expenditure incurred of €950 by taxpayers for Gaeltacht courses for their children for 1,000 applicants would be in the order of €190,000. This estimate assumes that all of the qualifying taxpayers pay €950 each per child and that they would have sufficient income to use the credit to the maximum extent.
