A post-Budget 2018 Ready Reckoner is available on the Revenue Statistics webpage at https://www.revenue.ie/en/corporate/information-about-revenue/statistics/ready-reckoner/index.aspx. In relation to the Deputy's question, this Ready Reckoner shows a wide range of estimated costs including, on Page 6, the estimated cost to the Exchequer of changes to the home carer tax credit. The increase indicated by the Deputy is not shown but can be estimated on a pro-rata or straight-line basis from the increases shown in the Ready Reckoner.
