Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 25 February 2014
202. Deputy Róisín Shortall asked the Minister for Finance if he will arrange for the Revenue Commissioners to contact a person (details supplied) in Dublin 9, to arrange payment of their local property tax through a payment service provider or single debit authority. [9315/14]
Amharc ar fhreagraI am advised by Revenue that information on all aspects of Local Property Tax (LPT), including details of the various payment options is available on its website at www.revenue.ie.
Revenue also confirmed to me that it continues to provide a dedicated LPT Helpline at 1890 200 255 to assist people in meeting their filing and payment obligations and to provide any other information or assistance that might be required.
In regard to the specific case referred to by the Deputy, I am advised that the person in question has already selected his preferred payment option for 2014. Notwithstanding this, a member of the LPT team made direct contact with him and discussed the range of alternative options available to him if he wished to change from his stated choice. Having considered the other payment options the person confirmed that he is now satisfied to remain with his original selection.
