Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 18 June 2015
82. Deputy Michael McGrath asked the Minister for Finance if he will provide, in tabular form, the yield from stamp duty on share transactions on the Irish Stock Exchange, in each year from 2010 to 2014; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [24373/15]
Amharc ar fhreagraI am advised by the Revenue Commissioners that statistics relating to stamp duty net receipts can be found on the statistics webpage of the Revenue website at http://www.revenue.ie/en/about/statistics/index.html.
Specifically, a breakdown of stamp duty receipts in tabular form is available at http://www.revenue.ie/en/about/statistics/stamp-duty-receipts.pdf including the years 2010 to 2014.
The Deputy may wish to note that the net receipt figures for stamp duty paid on share transactions includes all companies which are incorporated within the State. No distinction is made between companies which are incorporated in Ireland and those quoted on the Irish Stock Exchange for the purposes of stamp duty collection. As such, a breakdown of stamp duty paid solely on share transactions on the Irish Stock Exchange is not available.
