PQ 69
69. Deputy Mairéad Farrell asked the Minister for Finance his views on the fact that Ireland’s Register of Beneficial Ownership permits the use of legal trustees and nominee shareholders which adds a layer of opacity and disguises the ultimate beneficial owner in view of the risk of possible attempts to circumvent financial sanctions; if he will be taking steps to ensure that the register records the ultimate beneficial owner of companies; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
