Joint Oireachtas Committee on Finance, Public Expenditure and Reform, and Taoiseach

EU Budgetary Proposals: Department of Finance

Mr. Gary Tobin:

It could be. As I mentioned in the opening statement, when the EU Council agreed to look at the new own resources proposal and new methods of funding the EU budget, it said it would be an important principle that these new own resources would be proportionate. Our view is that the CPOR own resource would disproportionately hit Ireland and a number of other member states and so clearly we are not very enthusiastic.
