Question for written answer E-003040-15
to the Commission
Rule 130
Matt Carthy (GUE/NGL)

Since 1977 there has been an obligation on the Member States, under Council Directive 77/799, to exchange spontaneous information on contentious tax rulings, which was reaffirmed in an updated Council directive of 2011.

Can the Commission advise on the Irish Government’s compliance with the 1977 directive and subsequent amending directives?
