I propose to take Questions Nos. 218 and 219 together.

I am advised by Revenue that the provisional Mineral Oil Tax (MOT) Non-Carbon Component (NCC) and Carbon Component (CC) excise duty receipts in respect of motor fuels for the period January to May 2022 are shown in the following tables.

Projections of excise duty at the commodity level were not prepared in advance of the period January to May 2022. The 2021 receipts for the same period have been provided in the tables for the Deputy’s information.

I am advised by Revenue that the provisional MOT excise duty receipts in respect of kerosene (commonly referred to as home heating oil) and Other LPG for the period January to May 2022 are contained in the following table. Kerosene and Other LPG used for heating purposes attracts a rate of MOT which is comprised entirely of a carbon component. While kerosene is the predominant oil used for home heating, gas oil can also be used. As consumers are not required to specify how a fuel is used, it is not possible to identify the volume of gas oil used for home heating purposes.

The 2021 receipts for the same period have also been provided in the table for the Deputy’s information, as projections were not prepared in advance of the period January to May 2022.

2022 Kerosene CC €m Other LPG CC €m MGO NCC €m MGO CC €m
Jan 11.77 1.63 3.68 7.08
Feb 8.87 1.76 3.18 7.10
Mar 11.10 1.65 3.82 7.48
Apr 8.04 1.82 3.51 8.74
May 4.51 1.58 2.43 8.27

2021 Kerosene CC €m Other LPG CC €m MGO NCC €m MGO CC €m
Jan 10.56 1.34 3.62 5.43
Feb 9.85 1.42 3.09 4.86
Mar 9.20 1.33 3.46 5.05
Apr 7.20 1.24 4.12 6.66
May 6.48 1.10 4.70 6.99
