I am advised by the Revenue Commissioners that a wide range of statistical information is now available on the Revenue Commissioners' newly enhanced statistics webpage which can be found at www.revenue.ie. Further analysis of income tax and corporation tax distribution statistics based on Revenue data is provided on the Central Statistics Office website www.cso.ie and this may be of particular relevance to the Deputy's question. I provided the Deputy with the detailed addresses for the relevant pages in the written response to his identical question yesterday.
This recently released facility provides breakdowns on the annual distribution of Income Tax from 2004 to 2012 and USC from 2011 to 2012 using the Central Statistics Office data toolset. Data for 2013 are not available as yet but these webpages will be updated in due course. Providing information in this way facilitates dynamic access by a range of user defined queries and is a considerable improvement on the previous practice of providing static tabular data. If the Deputy requires assistance locating or interpreting the information on the Revenue webpages, the Commissioners are available to assist and may be contacted by email at statistics@revenue.ie.
As regards PRSI, I am informed that the breakdown of receipts requested by the Deputy is not readily available from the Revenue Commissioners.
