Question:70 Mr. Leonard asked the Minister for Finance the total yield from motor taxation on private and commercial vehicles in counties Monaghan and Cavan for the last accounting period for which returns are available. [7586/95]
Written Answers. - Vehicle Taxation.
I am informed by the Revenue Commissioners that a statistical breakdown on a county by county basis of the overall revenue yield from motor taxation for any accounting period is not available. Such information either could not be obtained, or could not be obtained without undertaking inquiries which could be carried out only at disproportionate cost.
However, returns on a county basis are available for the motor vehicle duties collected by local licensing authorities. The latest information on that basis of which my Department is aware relates to 1993, for which county data were set out in the Minister for the Environment's reply to Parliamentary Question No. 101 of 19 October 1994 — columns 159/160 of the Official Report.
