The Government’s Housing For All –
A New Housing Plan for Ireland proposed a new tax to activate vacant land
for residential purposes as a part of the Pathway to Increasing New Housing
Supply. The Residential Zoned Land Tax was introduced by the Finance Act
2021.
The dataset contains the land identified as being considered liable for the tax
in 2026 from all of the local authorities in the state. The available
datasets will comprise the annual draft maps, published on 1 February
2025. Previous datasets relating to the mapping process so far are also
available, including the draft map dataset published 1 November 2022;
supplemental map dataset published 1 May 2023; final map published 1 December
2023, annual draft map for 2025 published 1 February 2024 and final map for
2025 published 31 January 2025.
The final map represents the most recent
dataset of land liable to the tax, while the annual draft map for 2026
indicates existing liable land, new land considered to be liable in 2026 and
land which is now considered to be out of liability and which will be removed
from the next final map in 2026.
Certain settlements will not be identified due to lack of capacity or services
or due to out of date zonings.
The dataset contains data which will allow identification of the amount in
hectares of zoned serviced land within settlements.
