I note from the report of the Comptroller and Auditor General that the Department made a settlement of €1,359,358 with the Revenue Commissioners in March 2015 relating to the period, 2010-13. Why was the Department not tax compliant originally in respect of the payments involved? Were penalties or interest included in the settlement? What measures have been taken to ensure the Department will not have a tax compliance issue in the future?
