Office of the Revenue Commissioners: Engagement
Mr. Niall Cody:
The sector has intelligence. They know who has stopped buying. Much of the work that we did on fuel fraud had to do with getting supply chain information. I refer to part of the solution to this and some of the stuff we were talking about. For example, no coal is produced in Ireland. It all has to be imported It is either coming in from legal shipments or illicitly. There trade often knows much more about what is happening on the ground than we will ever know. Sometimes the trade is quick to make representation but slow to provide details.
