BREAKING: Mica-affected properties to be Local Property Tax exempted

Local Property Tax mica exemption announcement expected Wednesday

Donegal Live understands an announcement exempting mica-affected properties from Local Property Tax (LPT) is imminent.

It has learned,  today's Cabinet Meeting agreed the exemption to the LPT for mica homeowners, similar to that of pyrite-affected dwellings.

It is understood Minister Charlie McConalogue and Joe McHugh TD pressed the issue with Government in recent weeks.

LPT is a self-assessed tax charged on the market value of residential properties in the State. Liable persons must pay their LPT liabilities on an annual basis.
