This is a matter for the Revenue Commissioners. I am advised by Revenue that following failure by the business concerned to arrange payment of the debt or engage meaningfully with Revenue toward payment, the debt was referred to the Revenue Sheriff for collection. I am also advised by Revenue that they have received no request for a meeting from the company to discuss matters. Revenue further informs me that in this case the sheriff has been in regular contact with both the business concerned and its agent. The sheriff had facilitated payment by way of a phased payment arrangement but the business did not adhere to this arrangement. If the business concerned wishes to avoid possible seizure of assets by the sheriff then it is essential that it engage directly with the sheriff meaningfully and urgently.
