Proceeding contribution from Jacob Rees-Mogg (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 11 May 2011. It occurred during Debate on Common Consolidated Corporate Tax Base.
Common Consolidated Corporate Tax Base
Establishing the legal base is absolutely crucial before the Government engage in negotiations about the form of the directive. May I draw the Economic Secretary's attention to conclusion 2.12 of the European Scrutiny Committee's report? It clearly states that the ability for the single market to have taxes refers to turnover taxes and VAT, and not to the type of tax included in the directive. If there is no legal base for the tax, is there any point in having further discussion?
