"−
Tax competition between the countries of the European Union has been restricting public policy’s room for manoeuvre. This competition has meant that average rates of corporate tax have decreased from 44% in 1980, to 35% in 1995 and, finally, to 23.2% in 2010. The need to reverse this downward spiral in corporate tax rates, to prevent tax evasion when transferring dividends, to prevent tax evasion, and to solve the double taxation problem constitute the objectives of the directive that is the subject of this report. I voted for this report because it proposes combating tax evasion and putting a stop to the double taxation of companies that meet their obligations."@en1
