I am informed by Revenue that, as the information provided on VAT returns does not require the yield from particular activities or products to be separately identified, it is not possible to provide the VAT collected from toll roads or to separate this collection by road or toll location. Furthermore, I am advised that, even if the information were available, due to Revenue's obligation to protect the confidentiality of taxpayers' information, it would not be possible for Revenue to provide the information.
