Seán Fleming: Mr. Cody cannot answer my next question, but Brexit and the Border could have an impact on this matter. The essence of Mr. Cody's answer is that the criminals will beat us. Fuel will be laundered in the North, it will be brought into the South and we will lose revenue. We have moved into the area of criminal justice. We are all satisfied that Revenue cannot quantify that loss. The system...

Seán Fleming: I wish to raise a few other points about the annual report. Mr. Cody will send to the committee the memo on the double Irish from which he read. Regarding aggressive tax planning, many of those companies that used the section 110 provisions bought properties from NAMA - I am not referring to any individual company - and, according to Mr. Cody, used the charity trust mechanism to have a...

Seán Fleming: Fine. We will wait for when it is before the Oireachtas. I wish to pick up on a few points from page 10 of the annual report. I do not know whether it is a part of the committee's documentation. The Panama papers are referred to on page 10.

Seán Fleming: They came to light on 16 April just as Revenue issued this report. Revenue stated that it would take the same approach to the data being released as it had done to all offshore asset investigations. A heading on page 29 reads: "Challenging Offshore Evasion". I will link the two paragraphs together. What has Revenue done since publishing its report six months ago? Has there been any...

Seán Fleming: The Minister mentioned that on budget day. Will Mr. Cody spell out the implications? It is a matter that did not receive much public comment. If a taxpayer makes a disclosure, he or she can limit interest and penalties. The Minister is now proposing that this option would not be available. Is that in respect of offshore assets only? It is a mini-amnesty.
