Tax Reliefs
399. Deputy Richard O'Donoghue asked the Tánaiste and Minister for Finance the policy rationale behind the €3,000 disregard amount threshold for third-level tuition fees tax relief, given that the student contribution charge has been capped at €2,500 following Budget 2026 measures; his views that this structural gap completely excludes middle-income families paying for a single student, from receiving tax relief on their out-of-pocket costs; and if he will review the threshold in upcoming budgets to provide meaningful cost-of-living relief to middle-class households who do not qualify for means-tested grants but must pay their own way.
