Written answers

Deposit Interest Retention Tax (DIRT) is a tax deducted by Irish financial institutions from deposit interest paid or credited to the accounts of Irish residents. DIRT is deducted at a rate of 33% from the total interest paid on all deposit accounts held by Irish-resident individuals.

I am informed by Revenue that the statistical information in respect of DIRT receipts on an annual basis is published on the Revenue website at:
