Chambers Ireland: Corporation tax rate 'non-negotiable'

Chambers Ireland has said maintaining Ireland's 12.5% corporation tax rate will be "a crucial element" in sustaining Ireland’s return to growth and must be "non-negotiable" in any agreement.

Seán Murphy, Chambers Ireland Deputy Chief Executive said: "The 12.5% corporation tax rate is Ireland’s unique selling point and a vital draw for Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) which generates more jobs per head of population in Ireland than in any other country and support some 240,000 Irish jobs.
