Pearse Doherty (Donegal, Sinn Fein) | Oireachtas source

Last week the Joint Committee on Finance, Public Expenditure and Reform, and Taoiseach heard two MEPs discuss the proposed CCTB and CCCTB. Given what they said and given what we know the European Commission is proposing which goes beyond the CCCTB, it seems the Government is failing miserably to have any positive impact or influence on the EU or any other party to protect Ireland's interests.

Do the Government and Minister believe that the Apple case and other instances which have been amplified in the media, both domestically and internationally, have blackened our name and reduced our chances of getting a fair hearing about tax sovereignty?
