International Agreements

============================================================

Paschal Donohoe (FG), Dublin Central

The strategy we will be implementing is a continuation of what we have done to date. First, in bilateral engagements with many Ministers, including the US Secretary of the Treasury, Ms Yellen, we will continue to make the case for legitimate tax competition within certain boundaries, with a recognition of the role that our rate plays for our country. Second, inside the OECD process that will be intensifying, we will continue to make the case for that rate and will outline our broader views in relation to other elements of the OECD process. We will do that across the coming three to four weeks. There will be a further OECD meeting in July and another will take place in October. In each of those engagements and in the preceding weeks, we will make the case for our rate and for the competitiveness of small countries.
