Strongly agree

No, reform so the tax rate is based on the wealth of the recipient rather than the deceased

Sinn Féin may be more likely to support reforms to inheritance tax that base the tax rate on the wealth of the recipient rather than the deceased. This approach aligns with their broader goals of progressive taxation and wealth redistribution, as it would target wealthier recipients and help address wealth inequality.

No, but increase the tax-free allowance

While Sinn Féin has not specifically called for an increase in the tax-free allowance for inheritance tax, they may be open to reforms that make the tax more equitable and progressive. This could include adjusting the tax-free allowance, but it is not a primary focus for the party.

Strongly disagree

Yes, it is double taxation

They would likely argue that inheritance tax is a necessary tool to address wealth inequality.
