Tax Expenditures are useful policy tools for government, but have a significant cost attached to them.
In the fourth episode in the SJI's Ten Minute Lessons series, Social Justice Ireland's Economic & Social Analyst Eamon Murphy explains the key points and concepts behind Tax Expenditures, including the what, the why, the costs and effects, and the problems associated with them.
The purpose of our SJI's Ten Minute Lessons series is to educate and inform listeners on a particular area of policy, giving a brief overview and hitting on the key points that people need to know. They are intended to be short introductory tutorials to complex policy areas!
