Last Friday, the Department of Finance hosted the most recent meeting of the Business Tax Stakeholder Forum. The Institute attended the meeting under the auspices of the CCAB-I. The forum is an opportunity for key business tax stakeholders to engage with department officials of business tax matters. Among the items discussed were tax simplification, both domestic and EU, an update on the Funds Sector 2030 project, and EU and international tax developments.
In recent times, the forum has provided a key opportunity for the Institute to engage with the Department of Finance and share our views on tax policy. Before Christmas, we provided feedback on areas of focus for tax simplification. You can read that submission here.
