Introduce a tax on 'super wealth'

What this means

• The Social Democrats promised in their 2024 general election manifesto to introduce a recurring tax on 'super wealth' or 'excess wealth' in Ireland.[source]
• The tax would apply to net financial assets, meaning it would be charged on wealth above a certain level, with fair exemptions built in.[source]
• This is a recurrent tax, meaning it would be paid regularly rather than as a one-off charge, targeting those with the highest levels of accumulated wealth.[source]
• The commitment was first stated on 19 November 2024 and remains a promise only, with no confirmed delivery date set by the party.[source]
• This matters for accountability because voters and watchdogs can track whether the Social Democrats push for this policy in government negotiations or future budgets.[source]
