How to avoid tax: living in Dublin helps

TAX dodgers living in Dublin are the least likely to be caught by the Revenue Commissioners, an Irish Examiner investigation has revealed.

Defaulters living in Kerry, Tipperary, Monaghan, Kilkenny, Waterford, Sligo, Roscommon and Limerick are four times more likely to be found out.

An analysis of all 2,122 tax defaulters named and shamed by the Revenue from October 1, 2001, to June 30 of this year has uncovered significant anomalies in the geographic distribution of tax defaulters whose names are published by the Revenue.
