I propose to take Questions Nos. 418 and 419 together.

I refer to the reply to Question 105 of 11 December. The position is unchanged. Under section 157 of the Finance (Local Property Tax) Act 2012, from 2014 the Minister for Finance is required to pay into the Local Government Fund an amount equivalent to the Local Property Tax paid into the Central Fund during that year. The uses to which 2013 Local Property Tax revenues have been put are a matter for the Minister for Finance.
