TALC is the main forum for engagement between Revenue and practitioners on tax administration issues.
The function of the Tax Administration Liaison Committee (TALC) is to review and make recommendations for a more effective and efficient tax administration system.
With more than 30 meetings annually, we meet Revenue at TALC to discuss our members’ views and experiences of all aspects of the tax administration system. We are represented by senior Chartered Tax Advisers (CTA) and by our Tax Policy and Representations team.
TALC Background
TALC plays a vital role in the administration of the taxation system in Ireland and the Institute has been a member of TALC since 1989. Since then, we have fully and actively engaged with Revenue on all important developments in tax administration including the introduction of the self-assessment regime, the development of Revenue’s Online Services (ROS) and the codification of Revenue’s procedures for audits.
TALC consists of Main TALC and five standing sub-committees:
- TALC Audit TALC Collections
- TALC Direct/Capital Taxes
- TALC Indirect Taxes
- TALC BEPS Implementation.
Each committee focuses on different aspects of the tax administration system. Committee members meet four to six times a year to discuss any issues arising and how they can be resolved. TALC is solely focused on tax administration, it does not deal with the formation of legislation or tax policy.
