Lucinda Creighton: Property tax system ‘will cause ghettoes’

Renua Ireland leader Lucinda Creighton says the property tax system is going to cause “chaos” if continued in its current form and will lead to the creation of “urban ghettos”.

Ms Creighton also said that when she was part of the Government, she raised her concerns with Finance Minister Michael Noonan about the tax many times, but these fell on “deaf ears”.

In an interview with the Irish Examiner, the former European Affairs Minister outlined some of Renua’s proposals on water charges and the property tax.
