Kieran Coughlan: Revenue on the hunt for evaders

Revenue undertake a wide variety of compliance projects in order to protect the tax base, collect what is due to the exchequer, and prevent instances of non-compliance.

From a farming perspective, farmers will be fully aware of the on-going co-op shares compliance project which kicked off last October in relation to the Kerry Co-op patronage share scheme.

That particular compliance project is in somewhat of a state of suspension, pending the outcome of a test case expected to be brought before the Tax Appeals Commission.
