Valuation amendment legislation

Summary

Mattie McGrath raises excessive property valuations and their effect on ratepayers; the Tánaiste says the Bill is before the Seanad and will return to the Dáil.

The Bill is published, but when will it be enacted? I also have concerns with regard to the Valuation (Amendment) (No. 2) Bill 2012. Valuations must be adjusted. We have seen a court case recently in Dublin on this, but all over the country valuations are ridiculously high and ratepayers are being forced out of business.

Comment on this

The Valuation (Amendment) (No. 2) Bill is currently on Committee Stage in the Seanad and when it comes to this House, the Deputy will have an opportunity to air the issues he has raised. The local government reform Bill will be published later this year.
