I propose to take Questions Nos. 189 to 191, inclusive, together.

I am informed by the Revenue Commissioners that information on the ages or the marginal income tax rates of individual claimants is not required or captured for the purpose of administering tax relief for medical insurance premia in the Tax Relief at Source (TRS) System. There is, therefore, no statistical basis on which the information requested by the Deputy could be provided.
