"Ireland only taxes the profits of such enterprises [petroleum exploration and production]. There is no per unit tax or levy as in other countries and Ireland's tax rate is relatively low. The State also does not take an ownership stake in the field or demand royalties. Thus on this basis, Ireland's tax regime is generous in comparison to that of other countries. "
The Merthyr to Mayo Solidarity Cycle will leave Merthyr in Wales on the 23rd May and is due to arrive in Glengad on 4th June.
