Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 22 June 2016
97. Deputy Robert Troy asked the Minister for Finance why an organisation (details supplied) must pay a tax liability despite the fact that it was his Department that was at fault for the delay in awarding it charitable status. [17396/16]
View answerI am advised by Revenue that it has made contact with the body in question on a number of occasions, the most recent being on 9 June 2016, requesting additional information in support of its application for charitable tax exemption.
To date the body has not provided the level of information requested, which is delaying a final decision on the issue. To advance matters, it should contact Mr. Gavin Whitehead of Revenues Charities Section at telephone 067 63303.
