Vol. 352 No. 4

Written Answers. - Dependant's Allowance.

399.

asked the Minister for Finance if he will consider making a dependant's allowance available to the parents of a full-time third level student as there is presently only a tax allowance of £100 granted in such cases; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

I do not propose at this stage to introduce an allowance of the type mentioned by the Deputy. It would be inappropriate to consider introducing such an allowance in isolation from a more general review of income taxation.
