I am advised by the Revenue Commissioners that, while a list as described by the Deputy does exist, it is regarded by the European Commission as confidential. In the circumstances, therefore, it is not considered possible to provide this list to the Deputy. However, the Deputy may wish to make an application to the European Commission directly, seeking access to the list in question.
