In accordance with Government decisions on Local Property Tax (LPT) distribution, every local authority has a minimum level of funding available, known as the baseline. There are variances in LPT levels across the country, but all local authorities receive at least this baseline funding to support the delivery of services. The total LPT baseline figure for 2019 is €355 million. The individual baselines for local authorities are set out in the table below.
The final LPT allocations to local authorities for 2019, amounting to €503 million, along with details of the amounts retained locally in each area, local variation decisions, baselines, equalisation amounts etc., are published on my Department’s website at the following link:
