Irish Revenue 'Names And Shames' Bogus Account Holders
by Jason Gorringe, Tax-News.com, London

26 September 2003

According to the Irish Independent, the Irish Revenue Commission will today (September 26) publish a list containing around 200 names of people who have held illegal bogus non-resident bank accounts in yet another 'naming and shaming' exercise.

The latest list covers settlements that took place in the three months to the end of June this year and involves some 30 million euros in unpaid taxes. Revenue sources have disclosed in media reports that the list contains the names of some high-profile individuals.

It is the second time the Revenue has published a list of this type, and the previous exercise named and shamed 285 individuals a large proportion of which were company directors, landlords and farmers.
