The OECD is looking at global tax, which is a global issue rather than one that applies to one specific country. Will this be taken into account in its deliberations? It provides a degree of uncertainty. Will there be a timeframe on when the deliberations are concluded? Ireland has a single rate and it is transparent. Other European countries have a myriad of rates. Will this be reflective of changes happening in the worldwide system and will there be relatively quick closure in respect of the uncertainty it causes?
