Financial transactions tax

Summary

Patrick Nulty asks whether the Government will support legislation for a financial transactions tax; the Tánaiste confirms no legislation is promised.

The revelations about Apple this week have brought tax justice back into sharp focus and public debate. Does the Government intend to bring in legislation to support a financial transactions tax which it continues to oppose at European level despite the outstanding work of MEPs like Nessa Childers to push this agenda?
