I propose to take Questions Nos. 192 to 194, inclusive, together.
I am advised by Revenue that within the tax code there are a number of tax reliefs associated with property and land but not specifically for use by property developers or land owners. The available statistics in relation to annual costs are on the Revenue website at . Updates will be published in due course as information for later years become available.
Of particular interest to the Deputy are likely to be:
- Tax expenditures and reliefs table, detailing the cost of interest paid loans relating to principal private residence, relief for expenditure on significant buildings and gardens and the rent a room scheme, is available at
- Property incentives statistics available at
- Home Renovation Incentive Scheme available at for 2013 – 2016 , and for this year thus far
- Help to Buy Scheme available at:
-Local Property Tax exemption and deferral statistics for 2013 to 2015 available at and 2016 statistics available at
