PQ 170
170. Deputy Catherine Murphy asked the Minister for Finance the process which the Revenue Commissioners has in place for a person who wishes to notify them of tax evasion or any other improper or illegal matter concerning the payment of tax, either anonymously or otherwise; why there is no central national facility in place to enable a person to do this; if leaving the process at local or regional level will allow conflicts to arise given that the reporting person may be known to officials of the Revenue Commissioners, their anonymity may be compromised and this may discourage whistleblowers from coming forward; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
