Fianna Fail pledges annual cut to inheritance tax if returned to government after general election

"Easing the inheritance tax burden for families and workers in the economy will be a key offering in Fianna Fáil's tax package proposals," a Fianna Fáil source said. This underlines their commitment to tackle the financial pressures on families.

"While other parties have talked about the issue for years, it was only in the most recent budget that it was delivered. The changes introduced by [Finance Minister] Jack Chambers allowed for the much-needed reform to ease pressure on recipients of family homes and other assets." This highlights Fianna Fáil's perceived action versus Fine Gael's inaction.

"The changes in Budget 2025 have been well received and will be of huge benefit to workers, families, those whose house value has increased significantly in recent years across Ireland," a Fianna Fáil source said. This indicates a focus on real estate and its impact on inheritance tax.

"This is a key focus area for Fianna Fáil. Budget 2025 showed the party's delivery and recognition of this as a key issue for middle Ireland and people all over the country." This reflects the party's strategy to address economic concerns central to their voter base.
