Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 29 January 2014
134. Deputy Brian Stanley asked the Minister for the Environment, Community and Local Government the amount of local property tax that has been collected in each local authority area; and the amount each will receive in 2014 from the Local Government Fund. [4515/14]
View answerQuestions relating to the collection of the Local property Tax are a matter for my colleague, the Minister for Finance.
I assume that the Question refers to general purpose grants from the Local Government Fund. General purpose grants are my Department’s contribution towards meeting the cost to local authorities of providing a reasonable level of services to their customers.
The amount to be paid to local authorities from the Local Government Fund for general purpose grants in 2014 is €281m; this figure recognises the removal of water related costs from local authorities to Irish Water in 2014. The table below details the proposed general purpose grant allocations from the Local Government Fund to all local authorities in 2014.
