I am informed by the Revenue Commissioners that receipts to date from the 0.6% Stamp Duty levy on pension fund assets, introduced in the Finance (No. 2) Act 2011, amounted to €463 million in 2011, €483 million in 2012 and €535 million in 2013.

The deadline date for payment of the levy this year is 25 September 2014 and the forecast yield is €675 million.
