Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 21 March 2017
221. Deputy Michael Healy-Rae asked the Minister for Finance further to Parliamentary Question No. 104 of 9 March 2017, if he will address a matter (details supplied); and if he will make a statement on the matter. [13545/17]
View answerI am advised by Revenue that the fact that a particular entity is a charity does not alter their legal obligation to maintain taxpayer confidentiality in accordance with Section 851A of the Taxes Consolidation Act 1997.
The Deputy may wish to note that the Revenue Commissioners publish a list of charities that have charitable tax exempt status, which is available at the following link, http://www.revenue.ie/en/about/statistics/registrations-assessments-transactions-charitable-exemption.html, as well as a list of the bodies that qualify for the donations scheme, which is available at the following link: http://www.revenue.ie/en/about/statistics/registrations-assessments-transactions-resident-charities.html.
