Joint Oireachtas Committee on Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation

Cost of Doing Business in Ireland: Discussion (Resumed)

4:00 pm

Mr. Adrian Cummins:

The BID levy is a 5% top-up tax on businesses' rates. Those for and against the levy all agree the 2006 legislation is not fit for purpose for 2017. It falls outside the remits of the freedom of information legislation and the Standards in Public Office. We need to have this levy reviewed to ensure it is fit for purpose for this day and age.
