Priority Questions
Tax Compliance
5:00 pm
Paschal Donohoe (Dublin Central, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source
The Deputy is conveniently ignoring the fact that I have changed the allowances in respect of how intellectual property assets should be accounted for. I made the change on budget day and it has been legislated for through the Finance Act. I categorically reject any suggestion that the Revenue Commissioners or I are engaged in the kind of activity the Deputy is alleging and if there are concerns regarding compliance with Irish tax law, they are fundamentally a matter for the Revenue to pursue. I will not comment on any company in this regard but the Revenue pursues all matters relating to compliance with the tax code diligently.
