Minister for Finance (Deputy Brian Lenihan)

I am informed by the Revenue Commissioners that the relevant instrument for stamping was lodged by the solicitors acting for the person concerned on 29 June 2009, together with the appropriate payment of Stamp Duty.

To date, the Revenue Commissioners have not received an application for a refund of the duty paid. If the person concerned wishes to claim a refund he should apply in writing to the Dublin Stamping Office, Dublin Castle, Dublin 2.
