PQ 80
80. Deputy Richard Boyd Barrett asked the Minister for Finance if film producers who apply for and receive section 481 tax relief are responsible to ensure that the requirement to provide quality employment and training is met and have legal responsibility for employees and trainees on film productions funded by section 481 and that those legal responsibilities carry over from production to production in cases in which the same producer is involved; his views on whether the resulting number of jobs being created in the film industry is a small fraction of the number previously claimed by industry representatives in testimony and submissions to the Houses of the Oireachtas in view of the annual tax expenditure of €70 to €80 million on section 481; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
