84. Deputy Seán Ó Fearghaíl asked the Minister for Finance if he will provide, in tabular form, for 2011 to 2014, inclusive, and 2015 to date, the total monetary amount of carbon tax and value-added tax accrued to the Exchequer from private fuel sales; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

Written answers

I am informed by the Revenue Commissioners that a breakdown of receipts between fuel for private and commercial use is not readily available. The receipts from Carbon Tax are as outlined in the tables. Marked Gas Oil can be home heating or agricultural use and a breakdown is not available. Similarly, it is not possible to differentiate between private and business use for Auto Diesel, and the figures stated are for all use.

In respect of Value Added Tax I wish to inform the Deputy that it has not been possible to compile the information requested in the time available. A response is being prepared and will be forwarded to the Deputy as soon as possible.
