Chapter 13 - Revenue's Management of Suspicious Transactions Reports (2 Dec 2021) Brian Stanley: I will ask about Perrigo's tax settlement in respect of the 2013 period. The original figure was €1.636 billion which, according to details in the correspondence, was the assessment set out by Revenue at the time. It related to intellectual property. As I understand it, there was a court judgment and the judge agreed with Revenue on the figure and the classification. The court...

I thank him for that. It was helpful and I understand it. The Revenue Commissioners were found to be correct in that case. I am trying to figure out, as a member of the committee, and I am sure many members of the public are also trying to figure out, whether it was treated as a capital...

Chapter 13 - Revenue's Management of Suspicious Transactions Reports (2 Dec 2021) Brian Stanley: I will go back to Perrigo for a second. The figure was then reduced when various pieces of information were supplied. This was set out publicly in the letter. The figure was reduced to €967 million, if I recall correctly, and Perrigo seemed quite happy with that. The issue here is that-----

Chapter 13 - Revenue's Management of Suspicious Transactions Reports (2 Dec 2021) Brian Stanley: Perrigo believed the maximum income tax claim in dispute was reduced to less than €1 billion. The final figure that Perrigo agreed to pay was €297 million. By the time the process was over, the figure was reduced to €266 million. The point I am making is that an ordinary taxpayer or member of the committee would look at that and see the initial figure was €1.63...

Chapter 13 - Revenue's Management of Suspicious Transactions Reports (2 Dec 2021) Brian Stanley: The notice that issued on 29 November 2018 was for €1.63 billion. The point I am making is that at the end of the process, Perrigo finished up paying a figure of €266 million. I am trying to figure out whether the tax liability was calculated as 12.5% or 33%. I know we are not going to settle this today but we do not have much of an explanation as to how that figure was...

I thank the Cathaoirleach, Mr. Cody, the commissioner, Mr. Harrahill, and Mr. Doyle for attending. I also thank the staff of the Revenue Commissioners for their work in preparing for the meeting. I know they would have expected a wide range of questions and those expectations were followed through on during the meeting. I also thank the Comptroller...

Brian Stanley: We need to follow up on that. Do any other members wish to come in? No. As the Comptroller and Auditor General pointed out, there was a delay with the An Foras Teanga statements. As is the normal procedure, we will ask the committee secretariat to notify the Comptroller and Auditor General of our concerns regarding that. Can we agree to note the accounts and statements? Agreed. As...
