Ivor Callely

Ceist:

25 Mr. Callely asked the Minister for Finance the number and value of personal tax payments received up to 1 November 1995; and if he will give comparative figures for each of the years from 1990 to 1994. [10960/97]

I am advised by the Revenue Commissioners that the relevant figures available arc of the net receipt of income tax arising between 1 January and 31 October in each of the years 1990, 1991, 1992, 1993, 1994 and 1995, which are as follows:

Amount

3,271.4

3,319.5

A tax payment £220.8 million made in 1994 under the 1993 tax amnesty is excluded from the figures.
Figures of the numbers of income taxpayers are available for each of the income tax years 1990-91, 1991-92, 1992-93, 1993-94, 1994-95 and 1995-96 and are estimated as follows:

1990-91

1991-92

1992-93

1993-94

1994-95

1995-96

Numbers

853,000

863,000

882,000

907,000

948,000

983,000

The figures for 1994-95 and 1995-96 are provisional and likely to be revised.
