Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 8 December 2009
173 Deputy Joe Costello asked the Minister for Finance the reason for the delay in refunding deposit interest retention tax in respect of a person (details supplied) in Dublin 3; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [45794/09]
View answerI am advised by the Revenue Commissioners that the claims totalling €862.81 for Deposit Interest Retention Tax (DIRT) which were submitted by the person in question on the 20th and 25th of August 09 were refunded at the end of August. However, inadvertently, additional claims of €122.47, which were submitted on the 9th of September, were not dealt with. These claims have now been processed and refunds will issue shortly. The Revenue Commissioners wish to apologise for any inconvenience caused by this delay.
