Common Consolidated Corporate Tax Base: Discussion
9:00 am

It was up to successive French Governments to change the tax law in France if they so wished. It is their sovereign right. The witness cleverly mentioned Apple but it employs 6,000 people in Cork and it is an enormous employer in Ireland. The case is under appeal. The throwaway remark from the witness is not necessarily correct. The digital tax platform is under discussion in Europe but how do the witnesses see that fitting into the common consolidated corporate tax base?
