Ceist:31 Mr. M. McDowell asked the Minister for Finance the total gross cost to the Exchequer of halving the rate of capital gains tax; the buoyancy, if any, that would result; if his attention has been drawn to the fact that a number of taxpayers emigrate in view of the high capital gains charges, resulting in the loss of valuable Exchequer revenues; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
