Committee on Finance, Public Expenditure and Reform: Joint Sub-Committee on Global Corporate Taxation

Ireland's Corporate Tax System: Discussion

4:40 pm

Mr. Brian Keegan:

The third point is that a number of years ago the US authorities temporarily suspended or lifted the gates on the taxation of the moneys being paid back from offshore subsidiaries into the United States and that resulted in a significant flow of capital back to the United States. I suppose it is always a possibility that something like that might occur again but that does not address the underlying structures which give rise to the issue in the first place.
