Committee on Budgetary Oversight
Revenue Raising Proposals: Minister for Finance and Revenue Commissioners
9:30 am
Mr. Gerry Howard:
Apologies. I do not think as Revenue it is for us to decide what should be taxed and at what rates. Our job is to enforce the law and that is really where we come into the equation. On a technical note, it is not capital gains tax, it is corporation tax one would be talking about. Our view is that we do not form views as to what rate of tax should apply.
