116. Deputy Michael McGrath asked the Minister for Finance the number of customers for whom tax relief on their private medical insurance was capped in 2014; the total number of customers claiming tax relief on private medical insurance; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [5360/15]
View answerI am informed by the Revenue Commissioners that the information sought by the Deputy in respect of the number of customers for whom tax relief on their private medical insurance was capped will not be available until the 2014 annual returns are submitted later this year.
I am further advised by the Revenue Commissioners that the latest available figures show that an estimated 2.2 million customers claimed the relief for 2013.
