Joint Oireachtas Committee on Finance, Public Expenditure and Reform, and Taoiseach
Scrutiny of EU Legislative Proposals (Resumed).
2:35 pm
Mr. Seamus Coffey:
I am not a legal expert on this area, but it is interesting that when the proposals were published, they included the anti-tax avoidance directive, which has already been published and is part of the European legislative process of coming through. This gives an indication that the Commission feels that to meet the subsidiarity criteria, it must add the anti-tax avoidance directive, which has already been published.
