    ESRI: 2/3rds of people living in houses too big for their needs

    I was going to work for the ESRI, until I did some research. I dont like the way research reports are released, in order to support Government policies, and are timed that way. Who cares if other European countries have a higher concentration of apartments dwellers.

    ARF Distribution and PAYE Process.

    I have a Zurich ARF. I am taking 4% annual distribution, even though I don't need the extra income. I notice the monthly amount increased in 2024, probably due to the funds performance. It's a handy way of keeping up your PRSI contributions.

    Stove to suit Victorian fireplace

    Henley are marketed as made in county Kerry. Thats all very well ... but they are made in China. I would only buy quality Scandinavian stove brands, that are cast-iron.

    Inset Stove Heat Design Vitae 6kw cassette - any good/problems? Any recommendations on inset stoves for a small room?

    I have both types of stoves, inset and free-standing. I prefer the latter. Does not depend on a power source, for the fans. A proper cast iron stove is more effective, and looks better. I am talking Jotul, Morso etc. I mainly use kiln-dried wood.

    I used a professional tax advisor ... was a similar transaction. He said it was one of the most complex cases he had dealt with. This is a guy who challenged Revenue on a CAT case - the eligibility of Dwelling House Exemption. He won the case, and Revenue had to rewrite their tax rules.

    Theres a section on tax return form 11. It asks for net (nett it should say) amount of UK dividends received. Why are they not looking for the gross amount? I was deducted the Irish encashment tax only.
