I am advised by the Revenue Commissioners that while social welfare pensions can be separately identified from other sources of income in Revenue statistics, it is not possible to do so in respect of income from other pensions with any degree of certainty. Consequently there is no complete or reliable basis available to Revenue on which an estimate of the income tax receipts on pensions could be compiled.
