I am advised by Revenue that it is precluded, by virtue of taxpayer confidentiality obligations set out in section 851A of the Taxes Consolidation Act 1997, from providing the specific information sought by the Deputy in relation to Local Property Tax (LPT) payments made by Local Authorities on social housing stock.

The Department of Housing, Local Government and Heritage may be in a position to provide further information in respect of Local Authorities.

Revenue publishes a comprehensive range of quarterly and annual statistics relating to LPT on its website, including detailed information regarding Local Authority collection and compliance data on all its housing stock, at www.revenue.ie/en/corporate/information-about-revenue/statistics/local-property-tax/index.aspx.
