Committee on Budgetary Oversight
Corporation Tax Receipts: Department of Finance and Revenue Commissioners
3:00 pm
Mr. Rónán Hession:
The discussions are still ongoing with the company. It is very complex. While the Commissioner has spoken about this publicly, the Commission appreciates that this is complex. This is still ongoing with regard to the details because it involves a very large sum of money. Ireland is obliged to collect the money in the meantime, however, and that will happen. The company is co-operating and we are also getting good co-operation from the commission. That is ongoing. After that, it will be into the court process and we will be working to a court timetable. It is likely to take several years, however, before this court case is resolved.
