Joint Oireachtas Committee on Finance, Public Expenditure and Reform
Draft Heads of Finance (Tax Appeals Commission) Bill: Discussion
2:00 pm
Ms Cora O'Brien:
We suggested in our original submission the possible establishment of one or several dedicated tax judges in the Circuit Court dealing specifically with tax issues. That might help. At the bottom end, the establishment of a smaller forum to deal with minor cases, thereby removing them from the main body of the Appeal Commissioners, would free up the system and enable quicker throughput of bigger cases.
