I am informed by the Revenue Commissioners that statistics on Stamp Duty transactions are not compiled by reference to the address of the property purchased and, accordingly, it is not possible to provide the information requested by county. The figures of total stamp duty yield from residential and non-residential property in the whole country for the years 1998 to 2005 are as follows:
Year | Residential Property €m | Non-Residential Property €m |
1998 | 213 | 174 |
1999 | 263 | 288 |
2000 | 282 | 392 |
2001 | 265 | 406 |
2002 | 349 | 317 |
2003 | 528 | 547 |
2004 | 752 | 709 |
2005 | 945 | 1,056 |
