59. To ask the Minister for Finance the extent to which the Revenue Commissioners can enter into a long-term arrangement in respect of outstanding taxes in the case of a person (details supplied); and if he will make a statement on the matter. [11103/16]

I am advised by Revenue that there have been discussions with the person concerned since November 2014 but no proposal to address the tax debt in question was made to Revenue. As a result Revenue was left with no alternative but to advise the person earlier this month that enforcement proceedings to collect the debt would be taken.

As a final opportunity to deal with this matter before enforcement proceedings start, Revenue is happy to discuss a mutually agreeable phased payment arrangement for the debt in question. The person concerned should immediately contact Mr Michael Coleman of the Collector-General's office at 069 24821 to progress matters.
