"Ireland is geographically a ‘peripheral’ country in Europe. A low corporate tax rate is a tool to address the economic limitations that come with being a peripheral country. In this regard, we voted to oppose measures in this report proposing the introduction of a CCCTB and strongly condemn recommendations for the allocation of EU funds to be based on the taxation strategy of the Member States and their willingness to cooperate on closer tax cooperation. Measures of this nature are contrary to the ethos of the EU and the right of Member States to determine their own taxation structures. Secondly, a well financed EU Budget is essential for delivering on the EU 2020 objectives. It is the foundation for increasing the competitiveness of the EU and is central to the long-term success of the CAP. However, as Member States are faced with increasing demands on their national budgets, it is essential that a fair balance is found in financing the EU budget. In this regard, we support the recommendations contained in the draft Multiannual Financial Framework for the period 2014 to 2020 published by the European Commission on 29 June last."@en1
