Vol. 381 No. 4

Written Answers. - VAT on Tree Seeds.

56.

asked the Minister for Finance if he will remove VAT on tree seeds in order to encourage the development of afforestation.

Seeds used for tree production are liable to VAT at the standard rate. Removal of VAT from these seeds is not an option since the introduction of new zero rates is strictly prohibited by EC VAT law.
