With regard to the VAT collected on electricity bills, I am informed by the Revenue Commissioners that as the information furnished on VAT returns does not require the yield for a particular sector or sub-sector of economic activity to be identified, the amount of VAT collected on electricity bills cannot be identified. In relation to the P.S.O. levy collected on electricity bills, I am informed by my colleague the Minister for Communications, Energy and Natural Resources that the PSO levy determined for the year 1 October 2011 to 30 September 2012 is €92.12m.
