I am informed by the Revenue Commissioners that receipts from the temporary 0.6% stamp duty levy on pension fund assets introduced in the Finance (No. 2) Act 2011 amounted to €463 million by the end of October. This compares to a projected annual yield from the levy of €470 million. I am also advised by the Commissioners that they are aware of a small number of pension schemes in respect of which the levy remains outstanding. The amounts involved are, however, unlikely to make any significant difference to the latest yield figure mentioned above.
