Paschal Donohoe (Dublin Central, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source

For the Deputy to suggest, given the difficulties we clearly face, on which I answered questions earlier regarding the implementation of a current global tax deal, that jobs and our competitiveness could be secured by going beyond that and taxing more by bringing in new forms of tax, shows no understanding of what it takes to create a job and keep it in Ireland. The path the Deputy is advocating for is one that would lead to a weaker and more vulnerable economy. It is a course of action that I am certainly not going to follow.
