I propose to take Questions Nos. 315 and 316 together.

The information requested by the Deputy in relation to the yield from Stamp Duty on residential and non-residential property, together with the numbers of transactions, is as set out in the following tables. It is not possible to separately identify commercial property from within the broader non-residential category.
