“Today I am pleased to launch a public consultation on Ireland’s interest regime. As announced in last year’s Budget speech, this consultation will form part of a wider review of the regime which is currently underway.

The taxation and deductibility of interest is a complex area. This consultation is timely to ensure Ireland’s tax system remains resilient, supports competitiveness, protects the tax base, and aligns with our international commitments.

I would encourage all interested parties to engage with this opportunity to contribute to Ireland’s tax policy to ensure that it continues to encourage investment.”
