If you bought between 2004 and 2008 it is now 30 per cent  

It could be argued that mortgage interest relief should never have been brought in at all, as it was just factored into the price anyway and it just went straight to the developer.  however now that it is in, its hard to scrap for anybody who reliest on it and esp for those who bought at the peak. 

Anyway if you bought at the peak  your mortgage interest relieve will be 30 per cent.

Next budget will have an incentive for pension funds to invest in Ireland and in Irish infrastrure projects etc. 

We should be following the Italians in this in my view  that to invest in your own country, could stimulate the economy.

Carbon tax on heating  fuels held back until may. 

no increase in tax on the bag of blocks, or the sod of turf or the bail of brickets.

the idea is to get people to buy houses in 2012. The idea is that there is people out there who are ready to buy but, are holding off to see a bottom in the market.  Not sure  how much this will work but thats the idea behind it.

No change to income tax either in bands or credits.

Exemption to USC is being raised  from 4000 t0 10000.  This is aimed at the hospitality sector and part time work in that.

So if your saving for a house. You've now got 12 months to get it sorted. Good idea but puts pressure on people to save more and save quicker.

No changes to income taxes.

Universal social charge to drop but only if your part time, seasonal or a farmer
