145 Deputy Paul Gogarty asked the Minister for Finance if his attention has been drawn to the anomaly whereby the new pension levy will bring certain workers’ salaries marginally under the standard tax rate band of €36,400 which effectively means that they will only receive relief on their pension levy contribution at the 20% rate while a person earning up to €10,000 more will not pay as much on the levy due to the fact that they will receive 41% relief of their pension levy contribution; if there are plans to address this anomaly or if it has been addressed; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
