QUESTION NO.16

QUESTION: Councillor E. Tuffy

To ask the Manager if he will provide an updated report on the monies received by the Council from Development Levies, in each of the years 2006, 2007 and 2008, and to-date in 2009, and if he will advise members if there are any uncollected Levy income for the period 2006-2008?

REPLY:

Development Levies as set out in the table below have been invoiced/ levies received in the years 2006 to 2009 to date.

  2006 2007 2008 2009
Invoices raised : €35,757,006.44 €42,160,378 €20,863,317 €15,221,697
Income received : €41,694,052.49 €39,006,711.62 €24,175,572 €  7,584,125

It should be noted that there is not a direct correlation between the payments made in the period 2006 -2009, and invoices raised in that period, as many of the payments related to invoices raised prior to 2008.

The collectable balance outstanding in respect of all Development Contributions at the end of 2008 is €22.5m.
