Ceist:116 Mr. Gregory asked the Minister for Finance, in view of the abolition of insurance relief, the allowing of mortgage interest relief at 27 per cent instead of 48 per cent as was previously the case, the allowing of medical insurance relief at 27 per cent instead of 48 per cent as was previously the case, the doubling of the threshold before medical expenses can be claimed and the taxing of social welfare payments compared with the situation when they were not taxed, the estimated extra yield, that is, the yield which would have been received by the Revenue Commissioners if these changes had not taken place, compared with the actual yield after the changes occurred, in income tax in 1995 and in 1996.
