View answer395 Deputy Noel Grealish asked the Minister for the Environment, Community and Local Government the number of households in each local authority area that have paid the household charge as of the 14 March 2012; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [15699/12]
View answerI propose to take Questions Nos. 364 and 395 together.
The Local Government Management Agency (LGMA) is administering the household charge system on a shared service/agency basis for all county and city councils. I understand, from data provided by the LGMA, that as of 9 March, 2012, a total of 209,965 properties and as of 14 March, 2012, a total of 240,645 properties had been registered for payment of the household charge.
As of 16 March, 2012, a total of 261,563 properties had been registered for payment of the household charge. This equates to income of some €26.1m.
The LGMA does not have the sub national details of the registrations sought in the question.
