A woman who never worked at any job has lost an appeal against a tax bill for almost €400,000 following an investigation by the Criminal Assets Bureau (CAB).

The Tax Appeal Commission (TAC) ruled in favour of the CAB after it issued the female, who was not named, with a demand in 2020 for unpaid tax worth €389,632.
