The EU Commission’s conclusion that Ireland granted Apple Inc. illegal tax benefits, which enabled it to pay substantially less tax than other businesses over many years will be debated in plenary session on Wednesday around 16:00.
The Commission decided that Ireland must recover the taxes unpaid by Apple in Ireland for 2003 to 2014, totalling up to €13 billion, plus interest. Ireland is challenging this decision.
Parliament’s special committee on ”tax ruling” deals, set up in response to the the November 2014 “LuxLeaks”, revelations, delivered a long list of recommendations to make corporate taxation in Europe fairer and more transparent.
Procedure: Commission statement followed by debate
Debate: Wednesday 14 September 16.00
