EU State Aid Rules - Investigation into Preferential Tax Rulings: European Commissioner for Competition

12:30 pm

Ms Margrethe Vestager:

It is not something we believe. What we are suggesting is that it could be the case if another national tax authority went into the numbers, the way Apple is organised and how its profits are being generated and reported. It will take the national authority of another member state to do the full job itself. The Commission does not share any information we have found in the investigation because some of it will not only be controversial but also, and most importantly, confidential.
