News Release – Issued by Shell to Sea
November 7th , 2014 – For immediate release
— Corporation tax is only means of extracting revenue from Irish resources —
Shell to Sea has called on Minister for Energy and Natural Resources Alex White to clarify what impact Corrib Gas partner Vermilion’s Luxembourg tax avoidance deal – revealed in today’s Irish Times – will have on the revenue the exchequer thinks it will earn from the Corrib gas field. [1]
