EU State Aid Investigations into Tax Rulings (resumed)

4:00 pm

Mr. Mark Redmond:

It is not insignificant. It is a very important factor, but, as I said, the first is people. The issue that would concern us is the certainty. Imagine if the situation was reversed and an Irish company had invested in one of the states of the US and got an opinion or guidance at state level, but 25 years later it was overturned at federal level. Imagine how the Irish would feel about that, so it is the certainty piece.
