"I can tell the honourable Member that there has never been a debate devoted specifically to the subject of European tax havens, although it has featured in debates on a number of subjects in which the question of fiscal harmonisation has been addressed.
The Council and Representatives of the Governments of the Member States did, however, adopt, on 1 December 1997, a resolution on a code of conduct for business taxation. This resolution focuses on fiscal measures which have, or may have, a significant impact on the location of economic activities within the Community, with potentially harmful measures being examined by the Code of Conduct Group on Business Taxation. In fact, the measures deemed to be harmful have been gradually eliminated.
The work of the Code of Conduct Group is ongoing. Its last progress report was presented to the ECOFIN Council, which took note of it at its meeting of 7 December 2004. The group was to continue monitoring the standstill and rollback and report to the Council during this Presidency."@en1
