Joint Oireachtas Committee on Finance, Public Expenditure and Reform

Draft Heads of Finance (Tax Appeals Commission) Bill: Discussion

2:00 pm

Mr. Des O'Leary:

The intention is that a concise determination would be made by the Appeal Commissioners of the facts of the case, the issues at stake and the points on which their decision was based and that this would be published. This will increase the level of information available to the generality of the public and taxpayers as to how specific cases have been dealt with and thus enable people to determine whether their case is in some way comparable and so on.
