That is the point I am making here, which relates to the common consolidated corporate tax base, CCCTB. Profits are being booked in Ireland and tax is being paid on them at a relatively low level that is unlikely to have been made here. Are workers at the top ten companies in Ireland really making €62 million in profit a year for their companies or, and this is precisely what in my understanding the CCCTB aims to address, are profits being booked in Ireland that are not made here?
