3. To ask the Minister for Finance the reason for the spike in corporation tax receipts and the over-performance of €800 million from this source of revenue; if the increase comes from the multinational sector; if he will provide a breakdown of the increase into one-off factors, early payments and delayed rebates and repayments; the timing factors that were involved; the proportion of the increase that was due to improved trading factors; if a single multinational re-booking profits to its Irish division was a significant factor in the unexpected rise; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
