I assume that the Deputy is referring to Capital Gains Tax and Capital Acquisition Tax.

I am informed by the Revenue Commissioners that receipts of those taxes and DIRT for March to December 2011 are as set out in the following table.

2011 (from March)354227359


I am further informed by the Revenue Commissioners that net receipts for 2012 to 2013 are published on the Commissioners' Statistics webpage at .Updates to these statistics, including receipts for 2014 once finalised, will be published in due course.

The amount of these receipts associated with budgetary changes brought in by the current government is not separately identifiable.
