I am informed by Revenue that the yield from Excise Duty on the sale of alcoholic products for the years 2011 to 2015 is published on the Revenue website at the following link: http://www.revenue.ie/en/about/statistics/excise-receipts-commodity.html.
The Deputy should note that the VAT receipts are estimated for each of the years, as the VAT returns do not require the yield from a particular sector or sub-sector of trade to be identified and the actual VAT yield for each category cannot therefore be determined. The Excise and VAT on the sale of alcoholic products in each of the years from 2011 to 2016 is as follows. Please note that the receipts shown for Excise and VAT for 2016 are provisional and may be subject to revision.

The Deputy should note that the VAT receipts are estimated for each of the years, as the VAT returns do not require the yield from a particular sector or sub-sector of trade to be identified and the actual VAT yield for each category cannot therefore be determined.
