Vol. 505 No. 3
209 Ms Clune asked the Minister for the Environment and Local Government the amount collected in Cork County Council and Cork County Borough in the past five years; the amount of this money used for the upkeep of local roads; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [13736/99]
Details of the amounts collected by individual local authorities, the amounts applied to individual local authorities and the amounts applied to individual programmes are contained in the returns of local taxation, the most recent volume of which relates to 1997. Estimates for such collections and application of funds are contained in the Local Authority Estimates publication – up to 1998. Both of these publications are available in the Oireachtas Library. If the Deputy's question relates to amounts collected by the Cork local authorities in motor tax, the amounts collected in the years 1994 to 1998 inclusive were £28.9 million, £30.6 million, £34.1 million, £36.3 million and £39.9 million, respectively.
