Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 22 July 2020
98. Deputy Jim O'Callaghan asked the Minister for Finance the level of excise duty raised by the Exchequer via on-trade alcohol sales from pubs per month during 2019, in tabular form; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [17508/20]
View answerI am advised by Revenue that a breakdown of the Excise Duty in respect of alcohol sales from pubs is not available. Excise returns are filed with Revenue on release of the product from tax warehouses or on importation of the product, they do not record where or when the product is consumed.
A monthly and quarterly breakdown of Excise Duty for 2019, for each of Beer, Spirits, Wine and Cider, is published on the Revenue website at the following link:
