I am informed by the Revenue Commissioners that as of 1stDecember 2014, the number of persons who have made domicile levy payments are as per the following table.

| 2011 | 22 | €3,206,684 |
| 2012 | 14 | €2,237,811 |
| 2013 | 9 | €1,376,907 |
| Total | €9,982,857 |
2These amounts include interest for late payments.
I am further informed by the Revenue Commissioners that there is an on-going compliance programme in relation to individuals who appear to meet the criteria in relation to the domicile levy for the years 2010 to 2013. The purpose of the compliance program is to determine whether these individuals meet all the criteria in relation to the levy and to quantify and collect any outstanding domicile levy liability that might be due for back years. There are currently 93 compliance interventions opened on persons who may have a liability to the domicile levy for tax years 2010-2012. These 93 interventions involve 63 individuals with some individuals subject to interventions for more than one year.
