Fine Gael Party

Strongly agree

No, but increase the tax-free allowance

Fine Gael has shown support for increasing the tax-free allowance in the past. In their 2016 general election manifesto, they pledged to increase the tax-free threshold for transfers between parents and children to €500,000, up from €280,000. This indicates that they would likely agree with this answer.

Agree

No

Fine Gael has not advocated for the complete abolition of inheritance tax, but they have shown interest in reforming it. While they may not strongly agree with keeping the tax as it is, they are not in favor of completely removing it either.

Slightly agree

No, reform so the tax rate is based on the wealth of the recipient rather than the deceased

Fine Gael has not specifically advocated for a reform that bases the tax rate on the wealth of the recipient rather than the deceased. However, as a party that has shown interest in reforming the inheritance tax, they may be open to considering different approaches to make the tax system fairer.

Disagree

Yes, it is double taxation

While some members of Fine Gael may argue that inheritance tax is a form of double taxation, the party as a whole has not taken a strong stance on this issue. They have focused more on reforming the tax and increasing the tax-free allowance rather than arguing for its abolition based on the double taxation argument.

Disagree

Yes

Fine Gael, as a center-right party, may be more inclined to support lower taxes, but there is no strong evidence that they would fully support the abolition of inheritance tax. Historically, they have not pushed for the complete removal of this tax.
