I propose to take Questions Nos. 156 and 157 together.
I am informed that the information available to the Office of the Revenue Commissioners from tax returns or other sources does not provide detail on numbers of single use cups or the recyclable content of packaging. Accordingly, the revenue raising estimations requested by the Deputy cannot be provided by Revenue.
