Paschal Donohoe (Dublin Central, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source

The Deputy is correct about the own-resources model that the Commission has put forward. One of the sources it has put forward is the introduction of a CCCTB. The Irish position on the matter is unchanged. We will not support the introduction of such a fundamental change to corporate tax policy. It is doing so because the approach has been used in the past. It is one that the Commission supports. An opportunity like this is being used to raise the matter again and to argue how such funding could be used in other member states but it will not change our position on the matter.
