View answerThe position is that my Department's latest official forecast of €7,545 million for corporation tax receipts in respect of 2017 was projected as part of the overall forecasts contained in the recent Summer Economic Statement 2016. However, as the Deputy will appreciate, all tax-heads will be reviewed as part of annual budgetary process. Therefore, the next official forecast for 2017 in respect of corporation tax receipts will be contained in Budget 2017, which will take account of the most up to date economic and fiscal information.
