I am informed by Revenue that the net receipts from Capital Gains Tax (CGT) and Capital Acquisitions Tax (CAT), at the applicable rate, are set out in the table below. The table also sets out the estimated receipts if an alternative CAT and CGT rate of 25% had applied from 2012. The Deputy should note that these estimates are straight line calculations and do not take account of any changes in behaviour that may have arisen from the changed tax rates.

The estimates for CAT receipts at the alternative rate take account of the CAT group thresholds that applied for that year.

The figures provided for CAT and CGT receipts in 2022 are provisional and may be subject to revision.
