160. To ask the Minister for Finance the reason a person (details supplied) in County Kerry was unable to register to pay their local property tax online due to actions outstanding for 2013, even though they have fully paid last year's LPT; and the reason when queried, the dedicated LPT help line team were unable to explain.

I am informed by Revenue that the LPT Return for 2013 was not submitted to Revenue by the person in question. The person did however pay €112 (Band 2 Valuation), which was the estimated amount that issued to her, through a Payment Service Provider on 26 March 2013. Because the person did not file the statutory LPT Return for 2013 her record was incomplete on the Property Register and no notification issued to her in respect of 2014. I am advised that direct contact was made with the individual in question by a member of the LPT team on foot of her enquiries to the LPT Helpline. The person has now filed her 2013 Return through the online system and has selected her payment method for 2014.
