In my reply to the previous question raised by the Deputy on this issue, I indicated that my Department was examining the matters raised in the CIROC report. Following that consideration, and in light of discussions between my Department and the Revenue Commissioners, the matters raised in the report are to be taken up by the Commissioners with the institutions involved, with a view to ensuring that the practices concerned are in compliance with pensions tax provisions and with tax law generally.
