It is a matter for each individual local authority to set their rents schemes in accordance with guidance issued by my Department. The amount of rent due to any local authority from individual households is determined in accordance with its rents scheme.

Data on the amount of rental income collected by Meath County Council for the years 2004 to 2007 are available in the Housing/Housing Statistics section of my Department's website, www.environ.ie. Data for 2008 are not yet available.
