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

12:30 pm

Ms Margrethe Vestager:

That is a perfect question to end this hearing with, if the Chairman allows it. The answer to that question is "No". We are not, and we do not want to be, the Irish tax authority, the European tax authority or the international tax authority. None of our actions support that. We are the European state-aid controller, which is another matter.
