Ms Geraldine Tallon:
The number of properties covered by the NPPR has increased over the past couple of years. This charge has been an important revenue source for local authorities. It is anticipated that 337,000 properties will be covered in 2012, compared with 332,000 in 2009. The decision is that the NPPR will continue for one year only. Therefore, this charge will disappear in light of the new Government decision on property tax.
