Amharc ar fhreagra157. Deputy Pearse Doherty asked the Minister for Finance the revenue raised of introducing a latte levy of 5 cent, 10 cent and 25 cent on each single use coffee cup used or distributed in a commercial setting. [48964/18]
Amharc ar fhreagraI propose to take Questions Nos. 156 and 157 together.
I am informed that the information available to the Office of the Revenue Commissioners from tax returns or other sources does not provide detail on numbers of single use cups or the recyclable content of packaging. Accordingly, the revenue raising estimations requested by the Deputy cannot be provided by Revenue.
