I am advised by Revenue that the provisional Carbon Tax receipts for 2023 are €935m. Carbon Tax receipts for 2022, and previous years, are published on the Revenue website at: www.revenue.ie/en/corporate/information-about-revenue/statistics/excise/receipts-volume-and-price/excise-receipts-commodity.aspx.
As the Deputy will be aware, the Minister for Public Expenditure, NDP Delivery and Reform has policy responsibility for all expenditure decisions. In Budget 2023 the Department of Public Expenditure, NDP Delivery and Reform published "Budget 2023 : The use of carbon tax Funds". This document provides full details of expenditure relating to carbon tax in 2023 and is available on the Budget website: www.budget.gov.ie under the sections Previous Budgets, Budget 2023, Budget Publications.
