I want to reassure the Deputy that there are no plans to remove the Research and Development (R&D) tax credit scheme. R&D and innovation are of vital importance in increasing economic activity in Ireland both in terms of domestic business sectors and in attracting Foreign Direct Investment, and this scheme forms an important part of Ireland’s corporate tax offering.
