Written answers

Local authorities derive their income from a variety of central and local sources including from Local Property Tax (LPT), commercial rates, charges for goods and services and Exchequer funding from Central Government.  The Annual Financial Statement (AFS) of each local authority provides an analysis of their income; these financial statements are produced at the local authority level.  2022 is the latest year for which audited AFS data is currently available.

Accordingly, the data for 2023 in respect of commercial rates and income from the provision of goods and services (other service charges) is not yet available in my Department.  The unaudited 2023 figures can be found on each individual Local Authority’s website under Appendix 7 of the AFS for commercial rates and Appendix 4 for goods and services.

Income raised from commercial rates and goods and service charges for each local authority in 2022 is set out in the table below. Goods and services income reported in Appendix 4, includes the following: Rents from houses, Housing loans interest & charges, income from Uisce Éireann, Domestic refuse, Commercial refuse, Planning fees, Parking fines/charges, Recreation & amenity activities, Agency services, Pension contributions, Property rental & leasing of land, Landfill charges, Fire service charges, Non Principal Private Residence Charge, and income from other miscellaneous goods and services.
