John Deasy: .... It is a crude way of putting it but the country needs the revenue.

Public Accounts Committee: Business of Committee. (26 Nov 2015)

John Deasy: One word of caution here. It is something the Minister for Finance intimated yesterday with regard to what is coming from Europe, specifically as it pertains to Apple. It was not just an intimation; he was effectively saying that a lot of the criticisms of Ireland's corporate tax structure and the Apple issue were politically motivated.

John Deasy: ...are civically minded globally and it is a wonderful step forward, etc. I am not so sure this economy is in a place to be so generous with regard to giving up what Mr. John Sculley, former CEO of Apple, referred to as our "edge" when it comes to attracting businesses. I agree with him. What I am asking Mr. Shanahan is how, from this point on, he will gauge what effect the ending of the...

John Deasy: ...standards. Second, the European Commission has made it absolutely clear that in its opinion the loophole needed to end quickly by opening up an investigation into two specific rulings granted to Apple.
