Amharc ar fhreagraThe Finance (No. 2) Act 2011 provided for a second reduced VAT rate, of 9%, on a temporary basis in respect of certain tourism-related services and goods for the period 1 July 2011 to 31 December 2013. I have no plans to extend the 9% rate to include additional areas or industries.
