The table attached to my response to Parliamentary Question No. 199 of 13 May 2010 provides the total number of non-principal private residences registered in each local authority area as at 3 March 2010 (306,790 nationwide) and the number of that total registered to non-resident owners in each local authority area (14,305 nationwide). To remove any possible ambiguity, the table attached hereunder clarifies the number of properties registered to non-resident owners as at 3 March 2010.

As at 2 June 2010, there were a total of 310,096 non-principal private residences registered and some €63.2m raised nationally in respect of the 2009 charge.
