I am advised by Revenue that the table below sets out, in county order, the amount of Local Property Tax (LPT) that was foregone through exemptions for the current ‘valuation period’ (2013- 2021). The figures provided are based on valuations returned by property owners for their exempt properties.
It is important to note that properties built since 2013 are outside the scope of LPT in the current ‘valuation period’ and as such are not included in the exemptions data. The Finance (Local Property Tax) (Amendment) Act 2021 provides that new properties built during the next ‘valuation period’ (2022-2025) will be brought into charge for LPT each November.
Further statistical information on exempted properties and LPT more generally is provided on the Revenue website, with new information published both quarterly and annually, which may be of interest to the Deputy.
