Finance Bill

Proceeding contribution from Stephen Timms (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 5 September 2016. It occurred during Debate on bills on Finance Bill.

I agree with the points that the hon. Gentleman makes, but can he confirm my understanding that if the amendment tabled by my right hon. Friend the Member for Don Valley (Caroline Flint) had applied in Ireland in the case of Apple, we would have known that very, very large profits were being made by the company, which seems to have existed only on paper, and we would also have known that it was paying a tiny amount of tax? Would not that have been a valuable step forward in understanding what was going on?
