Introduction of concrete levy set to ‘severely impact’ cost of construction

Finance Minister Paschal Donohoe has introduced a Defective Concrete Products Levy in this year’s budget which will come into force from April 3 next year.

The new levy on concrete blocks, pouring concrete and certain other concrete products will be applied at a rate of 10pc.

The measure follows the introduction of a comprehensive redress scheme earlier this year for those impacted by the use of defective products in the building of their homes.
