Written answers

I am advised by Revenue that the breakdown of the carbon tax and non-carbon components of the excise duties charged on petrol and diesel for the years 2019 to 2022 are provided in the tables below. Please note that the 2022 figures are provisional and may be subject to revision.

I am further advised by Revenue that Customs data in relation to this query is not readily available, but the revenue generated for Ireland is likely to be negligible relative to the excise generated on these products.
