I am informed by the Revenue Commissioners that the type of income from the source mentioned by the Deputy is aggregated in tax returns with other forms of income and cannot be distinguished in such a way as to provide a basis for compiling the information sought.
It should also be noted that the Revenue Commissioners have an obligation to observe the confidentiality of individual taxpayers and therefore, Revenue may be precluded from providing information on small groups of taxpayers, such as in this case.
