Finance Bill 2025: Committee Stage

Edward Timmins (Wicklow, Fine Gael)
The Minister's amendments seek to add two countries that will qualify for the foreign earnings deduction, that is, Türkiye and the Philippines. I welcome that and have no issue with it, but I raise the issue of Russia being part of the foreign earnings deduction scheme. I suggest that Russia be removed from that foreign earnings deduction list in line with European economic and trade policy.
