I am advised by the Revenue Commissioners that it is not possible to provide a precise breakdown of the net receipts of Stamp Duties on a county basis. However, on the basis of information derived from the processing of property transactions in 2010, an indication of the amount of stamp duties associated with properties located in the various counties can be provided as follows, together with the amount per county shown as a percentage of the total Stamp Duty yield from property transactions.
