Committee on Money laundering, tax avoidance and tax evasion (PANA)

This parliamentary committee started on June 8 2016 and investigated for a period of twelve months money laundering, tax avoidance and tax evasion. Its establishment was a direct result of the revelations from the so-called 'Panama Papers' in April 2016. It looked in particular at whether the Commission and Member States did sufficient to counter money laundering, tax avoidance and tax evasion.

The committee worked in close collaboration with TAXE2 which investigated fiscal rulings and other measures similar in nature or effect.
