Minister for Education

Within the period 2016 to 2020, one of the State agencies under the remit of my Department entered into a settlement with the Revenue Commissioners. The Educational Research Centre was non-compliant with the requirement to produce P46s and as a result, Revenue levied a fine of €4,000, which was paid in 2018.
