PQ 525
580 Deputy Mattie McGrath asked the Minister for the Environment, Community and Local Government his views on the fact that charging the €100 household charge on self-catering accommodation is giving an unfair competitive advantage to other businesses in the hospitality sector, specifically the loss-making hotels owned by the National Asset Management Agency; his further views that this charge on top of the non-principal private residence charge is going against the policy to support tourism, specifically the self-catering tourism model; his further views that owners of self-catering accommodation should be exempt from this charge in an effort to continue to promote tourism; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
