The Irish authorities say that Apple was adhering to the letter of the law. If the Commission is successful in the appeal, how difficult would it be for the Irish tax authorities to collect the €13 billion from Apple? They believe they have complied with the law and the tax rulings. Would it be enforceable? Would the Irish authorities be able to enforce the collection of the €13 billion, even if the Commission is successful in the appeal?
