I propose to take Questions Nos. 144 and 145 together.
I am informed by the Revenue Commissioners that a Post-Budget 2016 Ready Reckoner is now available on the Revenue Statistics webpage at http://www.revenue.ie/en/about/statistics/ready-reckoner.pdf. This Ready Reckoner shows a wide range of information, including the costs of increasing the standard rate tax band. While the Ready Reckoner does not show all of the specific costings requested by the Deputy, other changes can be estimated broadly on a pro-rata (or straight-line) basis with those displayed in the Reckoner.
All figures included in the Ready Reckoner are estimates for 2016, using the actual data for the year 2013 (the latest year for which data are available) adjusted as necessary for income, self-employment and employment trends in the interim. They are provisional and may be revised. A married couple or civil partners who have elected or have been deemed to have elected for joint assessment are counted as one tax unit.
