Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 11 February 2014
133. Deputy Stephen S. Donnelly asked the Minister for Finance notwithstanding the decision not to make allocations from the local government fund at a municipal district level, if for the purposes of transparency and to further strengthen democracy at a local level, he will provide a breakdown of local property tax revenues on a municipal council level for 2014; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [6367/14]
View answerThe Local Property Tax Act 2012, as amended, is based on local authorities within the meaning of the Local Government Act 2001. Accordingly, I am informed by the Revenue Commissioners that compliance data in relation to the Local Property Tax (LPT) are available broken down by city and county councils nationally and that preliminary figures for 2014 will be published shortly. Any changes having regard to the new Municipal Districts will be considered in due course if considered necessary.
