I seek a point of clarity; I will be brief. At the moment the Revenue Commissioners provides companies with clarification by way of letters of concession, clearance or rulings. This is the system. Much has been made of Ireland having a transparent tax system. Is further transparency possible? Could the Revenue Commissioners publish all concessions, clearings and rulings in a redacted form on a quarterly basis? The Revenue Commissioners is already getting freedom of information questions and companies are repeatedly asking for clarity or letters of concession. Would it not be simpler for the sake of transparency if this was published on a quarterly basis? Has the Revenue Commissioners ever considered it? I realise I am dropping it in. If Ms Feehily wishes to reply at a later stage, that is fine.
