Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 28 November 2017
559. Deputy Barry Cowen asked the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport the amount received by his Department from the local government fund in each of the years 2011 to 2016 and to date in 2017; and the estimated amount in 2018. [50361/17]
Amharc ar fhreagraThe table sets out the local government funds received in each of the years 2011 to 2017. The receipts are paid quarterly and to date in 2017 we have received €165m with the balance due in December.
Legislation has now been passed and responsibility for motor tax policy and associated functions is being transferred from the Department of Housing, Planning and Local Government to my Department. From 2018 onwards my Department will not be receiving funding from the local government fund but payments will be replaced by additional Voted funds as part of the normal budgetary process.
