101. Deputy Patrick O'Donovan asked the Minister for Finance if he will confirm the amount of and reason for refund payment made to a person (details supplied) in Country Wexford on 14 February; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [45365/12]
View answerI am advised by the Revenue Commissioners that the person concerned submitted a claim of €613 relating to medical expenses for 2011 and also a claim of €200 relating to service charges. Relief is available at the standard rate of tax, which was 20% in 2011. Therefore, the person concerned was entitled to 20% of €813, which amounts to €162 and this is the refund he received on 14 February 2012.
