I am advised by Revenue that the cost associated with establishing the Local Property Tax (including the arrears of Household Charge) and the ongoing annual costs are set out in the tables.  The figures provided cover the full cost of the development, including the self assessment valuation mechanism, and the cost of administration of LPT for each year. It includes all pay and non-pay costs.

Also included is the amount of LPT collected each year.
