Joint Oireachtas Committee on Finance, Public Expenditure and Reform

Draft Heads of Finance (Tax Appeals Commission) Bill: Discussion (Resumed)

2:30 pm

Mr. John O'Callaghan:

No, because of the following clause: "Nothing in subsection (2) [Which is a list of the many items to which the Deputy referred] shall be taken to mean that the grounds on which access to a hearing is to be restricted extend to maintaining the confidentiality of a person's taxation, financial or business affairs." Confidentiality of one's taxation, financial or business affairs is not grounds for having a hearing in private.
