A new law around tipping comes into effect today.

Adrian Cummins is CEO of Restaurants Association of Ireland."We welcome the new legislation for tips, gratuities and service charge," he said."It's something that we have been advocating for as an organisation.

"We will be saying to the Government that there is an unintended consequence around this, which is the taxation element," he said.Shane McLave of Excel Recruitment said there could be a solution. "However, the Government should have gone a step further and considered excluding income derived from tips, or a portion of it, from the tax net.

"A case could be made for the fact that PAYE employers are already allowed to gift employees up to €1,000 in tax-free vouchers per year.
