PQ 204
204. Deputy Richard Boyd Barrett asked the Tánaiste and Minister for Finance whether the Revenue Commissioners treat airline points as equivalent to income for the recipient of the points, with respect to both points linked to credit and debit card rewards, and frequent flyer points (details supplied); whether the accrual of airline points is considered where a person is applying for a tax deduction for business-related travel, considering that the points offset the expense, and for an approximation of the revenue that could be raised by treating airline points as a benefit-in-kind subject to ordinary tax treatment.
