The Government does not propose at this time to introduce a wealth tax, although all taxes and potential taxation options are constantly reviewed. I gave a comprehensive reply yesterday to Parliamentary Question 25100/12 from the Deputy in relation to the potential revenue implications of various forms of wealth tax, including possible negative effects on receipts from CGT and CAT.
