Upping that and inflation kicks in, leisure driving drops off, resulting in less VAT on fuel etc. On the fags? They will ( pardon the pun) kill the goose who laid the golden egg here. Imports will flood in, and also people will stop smoking, resulting ( AGAIN) in drop off in VAT intake. I don't drink ( much) so cannot really comment on that. This bunch really have no idea of reality. AGAIN ( ignore this Lugha) I mention the bus....what's better a half filled bus at €5/ticket or a full bus at €4???

It certainly would have been valued for the purpose of the calculation of Domestic Rates up until 1977, your parents may remember that. Not relevant now of course. I suppose the easiest way to self value a property would be for the owner to (honestly) assess the price they would expect to get if it went on the market. There is some guidance available now from actual prices achieved in the last couple of years.http://www.propertypriceregister.ie/website/npsra/pprweb.nsf/PPR?OpenForm
