Leo Varadkar (Dublin West, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source

In terms of Digital Europe many things were discussed. The main digital issues are completing the digital single market, moving public services online, which is a very important issue across Europe, and upskilling citizens so that people can avail of the digital revolution which is underway. Digital tax was discussed. There is a specific reference to the Council's conclusions on the taxation of digital companies, first of all acknowledging that this is an international issue which the OECD is best placed to deal with, but also inviting the European Commission to bring forward its own proposals in the new year, when it will be discussed further.
