View answerCarbon Tax receipts are published on the Revenue website at link: www.revenue.ie/en/corporate/information-about-revenue/statistics/excise/receipts-volume-and-price/excise-receipts-commodity.aspx
This includes a breakdown of receipts by commodity, from the introduction of Carbon Tax in 2010 up to 2020. I am advised by Revenue that the provisional amounts raised through the Carbon Tax in 2021 (to be finalised shortly) and to the end of February 2022 are €652 million and €136 million respectively.
