Lobbying return by Charity Retail Ireland

Finance
Intended results

Ireland should seek a derogation under the VAT Directive to allow for the donation of unsold goods at a zero rate of VAT to be included in election manifestos

Derived link · Matched by name with added legal form

Published name "Charity Retail Ireland" has no legal form. "CHARITY RETAIL IRELAND COMPANY LIMITED BY GUARANTEE" (CRO 799483) is the only CRO company with that name plus any legal form (Limited, DAC, UC, CLG, PLC or Teoranta). Confirm against the CRO record before relying on it.
