Head of Economics at NUIG expects increase in property tax
Galway Bay fm newsroom – The Head of Economics at NUI Galway says there is no doubt the level and rate of the property tax will increase over time.
Dr Alan Ahearne made the comments as the Goverment prepares to sign off on a new economic blueprint for a post bailout Ireland.
The strategy will be published later today – and is expected to signal tax cuts for middle-income families.
Dr Ahearne says paying more in property tax would help move the burden away from labour taxes.
