Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 26 May 2026
188. Deputy Paul Lawless asked the Tánaiste and Minister for Finance if his Department has conducted any analysis regarding the amount of rebates and tax credits which people are entitled to, but do not claim; the amount which goes unclaimed each year; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [39397/26]
View answerI am advised by Revenue that, where a tax return is not completed, it is not possible to identify from Revenue data whether a taxpayer may be due additional credits or reliefs. Therefore, it is not possible to provide the Deputy with an estimated value for unclaimed tax reliefs or the number of people who did not claim tax credits to which they were entitled.
