I am informed by the Revenue Commissioners that the yield from motorists from Mineral Oil Tax, VRT, VAT, Carbon Tax in 2011, 2012 and 2013 is shown in the tables below.
| MOT | Carbon Tax | VAT (Estimated) | Total | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| €m | €m | €m | €m | |
| Petrol | ||||
| 2011 | 992.6 | 60.1 | 459.0 | 1,511.7 |
| 2012 | 904.1 | 74.6 | 510.7 | 1,489.4 |
| 2013 | 849.5 | 69.6 | 480.0 | 1,399.1 |
| Auto Diesel | ||||
| 2011 | 1,078.3 | 97.5 | 62.0 | 1,237.8 |
| 2012 | 1,071.4 | 130.8 | 73.4 | 1,275.6 |
| 2013 | 1,130.0 | 137.2 | 77.0 | 1,344.2 |
| VRT | €m | VAT on Cars | €m | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2011 | 388.4 | 2011 | 282.9 | |
| 2012 | 379.4 | 2012 | 287.9 | |
| 2013 | 436.9 | 2013 | 267.3 |
Please note that the VAT receipts are estimated, as the VAT returns do not require the yield from a particular sector or sub-sector of trade to be identified and the actual VAT yield for each category cannot therefore be determined.
Please note that the receipts shown for Mineral Oil Tax, VRT and Carbon Tax for 2013 are provisional and may be subject to revision.
