Gross Motor Tax Receipts for the years 2020 to 2024 for Wexford are set out in the table below.

Year Motor Tax Receipts
2020 €34,428,920
2021 €33,375,574
2022 €33,715,525
2023 €34,075,181
2024 €34,881,756

Since 1 January 2018, receipts from motor tax have accrued to the Exchequer and are paid into the Central Fund. Issues from the Central Fund are used in the day-to-day running of the State and it is, therefore, not possible to link specified revenue to specific expenditure.
