The Claire Byrne Show · The exchequer reliance on corporate tax · 5 Jun 2026 podcast

I mean, Donald Trump himself and many others in the Trump administration have actually spoken about Ireland specifically.

So,

you would suspect that as we get more of this detail, the scrutiny may well increase.

We will.

And look, the reality is that we've got some very profitable companies here in Ireland who are abiding by the rules and are declaring a lot of income here and are being taxed on that.

So I think as we get some of the other companies like Apple and Microsoft telling us how much they pay in Ireland later in the year, that's only going to increase the scrutiny on us.

Now, again, when you think of the big change that happened really in corporate taxes around 2019-20,

when intellectual property assets that would reside in a place like the Cayman Islands or Bermuda or offshore centres had to move back onshore effectively, so close to what they call substance, say production or tangible activity.

So as that happened, we've seen a lot of IP assets come into Ireland where the actual production and activity is and they satisfy the rules and corporation taxes have increased very, very sharply.

So look, there's no lack of warnings on this, you know, just under

We took in tax revenues, 107 billion last year, about 33 billion of those are corporate taxes.

So if something were to happen there, look, we'd be exposed and there'd be no shortage of warnings on that.

I haven't seen the returns myself.

I imagine they've certainly declared their profits and we know what they're paying in terms of corporate tax.

So, yes, that information definitely is available, yes.

Breakfast Business with Joe Lynam · The home transaction process report · 8 Dec 2025 podcast

Breakfast Business with Enterprise Ireland on Newstalk.

First of all, there's a recent survey from the Competition and Consumer Protection Commission.

In that survey, only 16% of homebuyers felt that the market was transparent.

I think also one of the key things in our report today is that, like in the UK where the asking price is the asking price, and typically transactions are settled at the asking price,

What we've seen in Ireland increasingly is this premium over the asking.
