Will the Minister put a little more flesh on the figures - the...

Vote 10 - Tax Appeals Commission (Revised) (26 Jan 2022)

Vote 8 - Office of the Comptroller and Auditor General (Revised)
Vote 9 - Office of the Revenue Commissioners (Revised)
Vote 10 - Tax Appeals Commission (Revised) (26 Jan 2022)

Neale Richmond: Given that the Minister no longer meets the Chancellor of the Exchequer, for example, as regularly as he would have when the UK was part of the European Union, on an informal basis outside Council meetings or at various other opportunities, there is a need to fill that gap, both from a political point of view as well as an administrative point of view to ensure that engagement on an official...

Ministerial Rota for Parliamentary Questions: Motion: Northern Ireland (25 Jan 2022)

Neale Richmond: I thank the Taoiseach for that update and for the report sent to our offices. I was struck by the remarks of the Taoiseach at the engagement in December and by the pertinent remarks made by Patrick Kielty that went viral.
