    Technically the church still owe the state 230 odd million they agreed upon that would then be transferred to its victims. Generally when any person/s/organisation owes that much to the state it isnt let go, unless of course you are Apple :)

    Can think of a few political groups that'd probably scrap CAB if they got the chance.

    Beggars belief they cant go after the Church for the millions they still owe to their victims.

    Do you understand what CAB does?

    Would be worth checking where all the apple tax is actually owed

    Not getting into the semantics of who must "collect" tax first and where it must be transferred etc.

    When you have a member of the government who was part of the Vatican mafia doing the deal on behalf of the state

    Its only going to go one way

    Are they any worse than the Viper in their destruction of communities?

    CAB must be the best ever Unit set up in this country. They should be used against criminals of all kinds, especially ones with made up names from Paul Williams. What are they not used a lot more?

    All a bit pointless really as foley won't be handing over a penny. BTW the revenue officials blitzed an industrial estate in limerick yesterday and the only businesses that they got any info from were the legit ones with their business names over the door. As for the rest everyone was called Lucas, Marek or Adam! Complete waste of taxpayers money unless you are serious about pursuing them.

    Why will he not be handing over the cash? Surely they will seize all his assets in lieu if he doesn't pay up?

    I'd say apart from his pushbike and gym membership card he has very little assets in his own name.

    Yeah good parallel there.

    If I recall rightly, they changed the law in the states back in the day to make illegal earnings as well as legal subject to taxation.
    So though he was party to countless murders, they got him finally on tax evasion.
