I am advised by the Revenue Commissioners that the tables given set out the range of information regarding income tax and USC as requested by the Deputy. It would not be feasible to provide the detail included as part of my oral response.

The income ranges provided are in brackets of €10,000 up to €100,000, thereafter the range bands expand over wider brackets in the higher income ranges. This is because of the Revenue Commissioners' obligation to observe confidentiality in relation to the taxation affairs of individuals and small groups of taxpayers. The figures for 2014 and 2015 are provisional estimates from the Revenue tax forecasting model using actual data from 2013 adjusted as necessary for income and employment trends in the interim. These are, therefore provisional and may be revised.
