As the Deputy is aware, for reasons of taxpayer confidentiality, the Revenue Commissioners are prohibited from providing information in respect of any individual taxpayer or any small group of taxpayers. 

I am advised by Revenue  that mandatory deductions at source from salary or occupational pensions applied for Local Property Tax  in relation to about 30,000 properties in 2013, and 40,000 properties in 2014.

In addition, since taking over responsibility for Household Charge [HHC] collection from July 2013, HHC arrears of €40 million has been paid to Revenue in respect of approximately 253,000 properties. This includes 44,500 properties on which mandatory deduction at source was applied.
