294. Deputy Michael McGrath asked the Minister for Finance the position regarding an application for clearance in respect of a probate case (details supplied); and if he will make a statement on the matter. [45150/24]

I am advised by Revenue that a letter of clearance, which confirms that there are no outstanding returns/liabilities arising on a deceased person’s estate, should be requested by the personal representative prior to distributing the assets of the estate.

In respect of the estate concerned, Revenue has confirmed that the application for clearance has been approved and that the letter of clearance issued to the executor on 1 November 2024.
