Total gross motor tax receipts from 2008 to the end of August 2013 are set out in the table.

Estimated income to the end of 2013 is in the order of €1,0 98 m. In subsequent years, in the absence of re-balancing measures, income is expected to fall by between 3-5% year on year, due mainly to the increase in the number of private vehicles taxed on the basis of CO2, which currently have lower average tax rates.
