I am informed by the Revenue Commissioners that the breakdown of Stamp duty receipts, on a Revenue Net Receipts basis, in the nine months to end-September 2006 is as follows:
|
€m |
% of Total |
|
|
Land & Property |
2,131 |
81.03 |
|
Of which Residential Property |
947 |
6.0 |
|
Stocks & Shares |
295 |
11.2 |
|
Companies Capital Duty |
6 |
0.2 |
|
Cheques, Bills of Exchange etc |
116 |
4.4 |
|
Insurance & Miscellaneous |
82 |
3.1 |
|
Total |
2,630 |
100.0* |
*Figures may not add due to rounding.
These figures are not yet finalised and are subject to change.
The yield from land and property transactions owes much to the continued strong performance of the property market.
While Finance Bill 2006 provided for the abolition of companies capital duty for transactions effected on or after 7 December 2005, €6m arrears of companies capital duty has been paid this year in the nine months to end-September.
