Multinational corporation tax
Senator Mooney asks the Government to explain its position on multinational tax rates while considering reductions in Ireland’s unsustainable bank debt.
The question I am putting to the Leader is that the Minister for Finance or the Minister of State should come to this House to provide some clarity, in light of the investigation that is going on at Parliament level and the discussions that are under way in Europe to try to get our European partners to reduce our unsustainable bank debt, as to exactly what is the reaction of the Government to the 4% or 5% tax that is being paid by multinationals.
