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

12:30 pm

Ms Margrethe Vestager:

First things first: whether or not the case is appealed and no matter who appeals it, the recovery must take place, which is why it is important for us to see the progress in the work done by the Irish authorities to make the recovery. As I said before, recognising the difficulties and challenges in this case, because it is a large sum of money, what we appreciate is the progress; we are not too picky about the fact that the deadlines have passed.
