Will Professor Stewart explain to the committee how the effective tax rate could be so low, if no taxes are paid in any other jurisdiction? I think the line of questioning earlier on was that Professor Stewart was including companies that are paying tax in another jurisdiction, however, he has now clarified that this is the only jurisdiction in which they paid tax. How were the companies able to have the tax as low as that?
