Revenue chiefs to be hauled up over tax chaos

Revenue chiefs are to be hauled before an Oireachtas watchdog after early property tax demands provoked widespread public confusion and Cabinet chaos over how to deal with it.

The Cabinet will also discuss the fallout from the PR disaster tomorrow with the Coalition openly split after Taoiseach Enda Kenny pointedly refused to back up Tánaiste Eamon Gilmore’s call for a review of the November deadline.

Revenue Commissioners chairwoman Josephine Feehily is to be quizzed on the payments mess by the Oireachtas finance committee.
