"The Council has an obligation to act on the proposal on the table and stop blocking the road to tax justice. We already have tax transparency for banks and investment firms and these are still continuing to thrive in spite of warning about imminent collapse if their accounts were made public.

"Failure to act by the Council is unacceptable and we can no longer let a handful of European countries block progress on something as fundamental as knowing where large corporations pay taxes. We need a taxation reform in the EU that works for the people and for the planet and public country-by-country reporting would be an important step in this direction. The Council need to stop dragging its feet and act now."
