Is there any way the representatives can do anything about the funny business? Colm Keena wrote some very good articles on this in The Irish Timeswhere he followed some European journalists on that business that has started there where there were all these ghost companies in Luxembourg with knobs on hall doors but nothing behind them. Is there any way we can be influenced to actively spend time, like CAB, going after that? As the witnesses have rightly pointed out, €75 million is an awful lot of money to pay to the EU for something that we cannot see or avail of.
