In response to the Deputy's question, I am advised that of the eighteen bodies under the aegis of my Department, ten have an up to date tax clearance certificate. These bodies are the Office of the Comptroller & Auditor General, Central Bank, Financial Services Ombudsman Bureau, Irish Bank Resolution Corporation, Irish Fiscal Advisory Council, National Asset Management Agency, National Treasury Management Agency, Office of the Revenue Commissioners, Social Finance Foundation and the Strategic Banking Corporation of Ireland.
Details of the remaining eight bodies are set out in the following table.
Agency/Body | |
---|---|
Credit Review Office | The Credit Review Office does not have a Tax Clearance Certificate because it does not invoice any public sector bodies/receive any public sector funding. |
Credit Union Advisory Committee | CUAC consists of a committee of 3. It does not have a Tax Clearance Certificate as funding is allocated from Vote 7 (Department of Finance) from which annual fees and expenses of the Committee are paid. |
Credit Union Restructuring Board (ReBo) | REBO is not liable for taxation, therefore it does not have a Tax Clearance Certificate. |
Disabled Drivers Medical Board of Appeal | The DDMBA does not have a tax number. It is an appeal board whose members are appointed by the Minister for Finance. It is facilitated by the National Rehabilitation Hospital (NRH) and paid for out of the Finance Vote . The NRH has an up to date Tax Clearance Certificate which covers the DDMBA. |
Financial Services Ombudsman Council | A Tax Clearance Certificate is not required as the Financial Services Ombudsman Bureau deals with payments on behalf of the Financial Services Ombudsman Council. |
Investor Compensation Company Limited | The ICCL has no requirement for a Tax Clearance Certificate at present. It is satisfied that all its tax affairs are in order with appropriate returns and payments made up to date. |
Irish Financial Services Appeals Tribunal | IFSAT does not have a Tax Clearance Certificate. The Tribunal does not have any transactions that fall under the PAYE or VAT regime. It does not employ staff and it has no sales. |
Tax Appeals Commission | The Commission is centrally funded by the Exchequer through Vote 10. As such, the Commission has no requirement or need for a Tax Clearance Certificate |
