I am advised by Revenue that Section 156 of the Finance (Local Property Tax) Act 2012 (as amended) provides that, where arrears of Household Charge in respect of 2012 were outstanding at 1 July 2012, the amount was increased to €200 and reclassified as arrears of Local Property Tax (LPT). On the specific case to which the Deputy refers, Revenue has confirmed that the LPT Returns and payments due for 2013 and 2014 have been filed and are correctly reflected on the LPT Register. However, Revenue has not received confirmation of payment of the Household Charge in respect of the property in question from the Local Government Management Agency (LGMA). Revenue informs me that while the process of importing Household Charge data from the LGMA computer system to Revenue's IT systems is well advanced there are still a number of records to be cross referenced and linked.

Revenue has informed me that it will make direct contact with the persons in question to assure them that they are fully compliant with their LPT obligations in respect of 2013 and 2014 and secondly to confirm the status of their Household Charge liabilities in respect of 2012.
