Renua proposes new flat rate of income tax in pre-budget submission

Renua has issued a number of pre-budget submissions today.

The party is proposing a new 23% flat rate of income tax for everyone.

It also proposes abolishing the TV licence fee and making RTE fund itself entirely from commercial revenue.

Motor tax would also be abolished with an increased levy on fuel instead and the party says that would add three cent to a litre of petrol and four cent to a litre of diesel.

The party also says no public servant should get a pension in excess of €60,000.
