- An Exchequer deficit of €966 million was recorded to end March 2019. This compares to a deficit of €1,114 million in the same period last year.
- Tax revenues of €12,795 million were collected in Q1 2019, representing a year-on-year increase of 7.1% or €843 million.
- Total net voted expenditure to end-March 2019, at €11,986 million, was up €809 million or 7.2% in year-on-year terms but is 2.6% or €321 million below profile.
- Combined receipts from non-tax revenue and capital receipts of €1,369 million were up 28.5% or €303 million year-on-year.
- Non-voted expenditure of €3,144 million was up year-on-year by 6.4% or €188 million. This increase was driven by a greater EU contribution due to both Ireland’s increased share of EU obligations and the timing of funds called up by the Commission.
