Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 19 May 2016
59. Deputy Bernard J. Durkan asked the Minister for Finance the extent to which the Revenue Commissioners can enter into a long-term arrangement in respect of outstanding taxes in the case of a person (details supplied); and if he will make a statement on the matter. [11103/16]
Amharc ar fhreagraI am advised by Revenue that there have been discussions with the person concerned since November 2014 but no proposal to address the tax debt in question was made to Revenue. As a result Revenue was left with no alternative but to advise the person earlier this month that enforcement proceedings to collect the debt would be taken.
As a final opportunity to deal with this matter before enforcement proceedings start, Revenue is happy to discuss a mutually agreeable phased payment arrangement for the debt in question. The person concerned should immediately contact Mr Michael Coleman of the Collector-General's office at 069 24821 to progress matters.
