Tax Avoidance

Paul Murphy (Dublin South West, Solidarity) | Oireachtas source
I ask the Minister to recognise the writing on the wall and to accept the reality that Ireland is a major corporate conduit tax haven. I ask him to accept the points made in the paper, "The Missing Profits of Nations", which outlines that Ireland had the greatest amount of corporate profits shifted through it in the world - some $106 billion in 2015, which was more than all the countries of the Caribbean combined. I hope the Minister will agree that this is not only utterly immoral in driving inequality around the world but also utterly unsustainable as an economic model.
