I am advised by Revenue that a wide range of statistical information is available on the Commissioners' Statistics webpage: http://www.revenue.ie/en/about/statistics/index.html.
In relation to the Deputy's question, the latest detailed information on the costs of allowances and reliefs can be found under the Tax Expenditures heading at http://www.revenue.ie/en/about/statistics/index.html#section9. Costs are not yet available in respect of the year 2015 and are only available for 2014 for certain expenditures. Updates will be published in due course.
While these tables do not constitute a full listing of all tax expenditures on the Statute Book, they reflect those for which a costing is readily available.
