Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 9 June 2015
347. Deputy Thomas P. Broughan asked the Minister for Finance the current tax take from the RCT sector in 2012, 2013, 2014 and the expected tax take for 2015; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [22417/15]
View answerI am informed by the Revenue Commissioners that the annual tax take from sectors to which Relevant Contracts Tax (RCT) is applicable (ie the 'Agriculture, forestry & fishing', 'Manufacturing' and 'Construction' sectors), in 2012 and 2013 (the latest year for which a sectoral breakdown is available) is €4,291 million and €4,104 million respectively. I am also advised by the Revenue Commissioners that breakdown by tax of these figures is available on their statistics website in the 'Revenue Net Receipts by Sector' section at www.revenue.ie/en/about/statistics/net-receipts-by-sector.pdf.
