I am advised by Revenue that the Finance (Local Property Tax) Act 2012 (as amended) provides that all payments of Local Property Tax (LPT) are due on or before 1 January in the year immediately following the year in which the 'liability date' falls. The 'liability date' is 1 November in the preceding year, for example 1 November 2014 in respect of 2015. The Deputy will be aware that the Revenue Chairman committed to review all of the payment options that are currently available for LPT in advance of the 2015 'liability date'. I am informed that the review is currently under way and any changes to the payment options will be publicised in good time for 2015.
