Joint Oireachtas Committee on Finance, Public Expenditure and Reform

Property Tax: Discussion with Revenue

4:50 pm

Ms Josephine Feehily:

There is a high-level answer to that. Every week or so we issue e-briefs in which we make interpretations that apply to business. Less frequently we issue tax briefing articles in which we set out our views in respect of certain classes of transaction. Much of it is done already in that fashion. Perhaps we do not call them what Deputy Humphreys calls them, but e-briefs are the medium through which we issue such information already.

Perhaps we could discuss what Deputy Humphreys believes is not in place and what we should be putting out in a public form. Certainly, where an issue arises and a business needs clarification and the issue has application to several businesses or classes of business, we tend to issue an e-brief, because practitioners want it that way. It tends to be done. I am trying to figure out what is missing.
