Amharc ar fhreagraSince its establishment in March 2016 the Tax Appeals Commission (TAC) has had two full time Commissioners. An additional temporary Commissioner was appointed in June 2017 for a 2 year period in order to assist in disposing of the legacy appeals which transferred to the Commission from the Revenue Commissioners. My Department is currently considering a request from the TAC for additional resources including staff. I note that this request does not involve any further appointments at Commissioner level.
