Just 1 more day until #Budget19 is announced. The 9% VAT rate is what is appropriate for the hospitality industry and MUST be retained! #KeepVat9 James Dobbins Thomas Pringle Timmy Dooley @VoteTomNeville @TommyBroughanTD Tony McLoughlin Willie O'Dea Enda Kenny Josepha Madigan ⚖️✨

The 9% VAT rate has allowed Ireland's tourism and hospitality industry to grow. This progress will be completely undone should the VAT rate skyrocket to 13.5% in #Budget2019 #KeepVat9 Charlie McConalogue Ciaran Cannon Colm Brophy Damien English Dara Calleary Dara Murphy

The hospitality industry has created both direct and indirect employment since the introduction of the 9% VAT rate. These figures cannot be ignored in #Budget2019 #KeepVat9 Tony McLoughlin Willie O'Dea Enda Kenny Josepha Madigan ⚖️✨ Michael noonan Brendan Smith Declan Breathnach

@campaignforleo Vat increased for restaurants is so short sighted. Say goodbye to a lot a lot of Independent local cafes and restaurants. Say hello to more generic chains. This does nothing for Irish food. KeepVat9 #Food #ireland

#budget19 will be known as an election budget paid for by the Tourism Industry Restaurants Association of Ireland Seán Collender

If Government ignores the pleas of the hospitality industry to #KeepVat9 in #Budget19 it will result in mass job loss accross the country, but particularly in vulnerable rural regions!
