I am advised by Revenue that the person to whom the Deputy refers is paid up to date in respect of her Local Property Tax (LPT) and Household Charge (HHC) liabilities.

However, due to a technical error, a refund of LPT amounting to €38.08 in respect of the 2014 liability was incorrectly generated and sent to her on 6 December 2014, which has unfortunately created an 'underpayment' of that amount.

The LPT team has tried to make direct telephone contact with the person to apologise and rectify the error but has not yet been able to reach her. The team has however written to her and provided a direct dial telephone contact as well as a list of the LPT/HHC payments that she has made to date.

Once contact is made, Revenue has assured me that the issue referred to above will be resolved in whatever way best suits the person.
