Minister for Finance

I am advised by Revenue that, as the Key Employee Engagement Programme (KEEP) only came into effect on 1 January 2018, details of the costs and numbers availing of this programme will only be available once the relevant employer tax returns for 2018 have been received and processed. The first KEEP return is due 31 March 2019.
