"In light of the assurance from the Minister for Treasury and Resources that Jersey only had a minor issue with deemed distribution' in relation to the Island's compliance with the EU Code of Conduct on Business Taxation and that the EU decision awaited a further meeting in February, what response does the Chief Minister have to the statement from HM Treasury, following a meeting with ECOFIN Ministers, that states that ECOFIN noted the view of the Business Taxation Group that Jersey's zero/10 corporate tax regime gave rise to harmful effects and was not compliant with the Code and that the UK Government therefore expects Jersey to abide by commitments to comply with the Code and implement the abolition of the harmful measures?"
