    Do the excise resolutions require the assent of the president?

    The President must sign all bills to make them law, he can only refuse if he has sent the bill to the SC. He can not send a money bill to the SC.

    If I remember in relation to excise resolutions they are funny, in that they are law as long as they are passed in the finance bill, within a certain time. I'll look that up again.

    Found it http://www.irishstatutebook.ie/1927/en/act/pub/0007/index.html

    Don't think the president needs to sign them, as he will sign the bill once produced or they will not be passed.

    Sorry I originally misunderstood your question as a resolution is not a bill there is no need for the president I think.

    No need; it's all down to the Provisional Collection of Taxes Act, resolution passed by finance cttee of Dail followed by resolution followed by Bill presented and having second reading (or some such) within a specified period. In decades gone by, I used to be very busy on nights such as this; in first year stuffing envelopes with client bulletins, later analysing, writing and publishing advice. A long, long time ago.....
