I have been informed by the Revenue Commissioners that the statistics sought at (a), (b), (c), (d) and (e) of the question are not available. However, as regards (e), information is available for 1987 and 1988 regarding the amounts of PAYE tax remitted by employers dealt with for purposes of that tax in the Wexford tax district. These amounts are £14.7 million for 1987 and £15.3 million for 1988.
