THE COMPANY WHICH owns the Paris Bakery in Dublin was issued a final demand letter by the for Revenue Commissioners €193,106.98 in outstanding taxes last year.
The letter from Revenue to the Paris Bakery and Pastry Limited company demanding payment was sent on the 7th of May 2013, requesting payment within seven days.
A copy of the letter has been seen by TheJournal.ie.
A schedule of sums owed by Paris Bakery and Pastry Limited attached to the letter shows that the vast majority of the monies owed were in relation to employee PAYE and PRSI.
Sums owed
A total of €164,301 was owed under these two categories, with the remainder being demanded for non-payment of VAT.
Twelve instances of failure to pay PRSI and VAT are identified by in the schedule, covering a range of dates from 1 January 2011 to 31 March 2013.
PRSI, or Pay Related Social Insurance, is a contributory payment paid by employers for their employees, while PAYE or Pay as You Earn is an employee’s own income tax, collected and paid on their behalf by an employer.
The largest outstanding payment is for €129,446 and covers the entire year for 2012.
The letter warns that the matter could be the subject of Court proceedings for recovery of the debt, or could be referred to the Sherriff or County Registrar.
It warns that “any such action will be taken without further warning”.
Revenue blamed
Speaking to TheJournal.ie, general secretary of plasterers’ union OPATSI Billy Wall said that the letter shows how deeply in trouble the business was as far back as two years.
One of the workers staging the sit-in is an OPATSI member, and Wall vowed to back both him and others engaged in the occupation.
Wall said that the Revenue Commissioners should have seen the warning signs and acted sooner to make sure that the company was acting appropriately.
Certainly red lights should have been going off
Workers from the Paris Bakery have been engaged in a sit-in protest at the former premises of the business since last week, and are alleging non-payment of wages of up to €55,000.
The owner of the bakery is due to take part in talks with the workers this afternoon.

Could easily fund their campaigns with the money made off Ukrainian refugees.
@Ciaran O Donoghue: Well we now have the Tweets and video of NGO’s bussing Illegal immigrants to polling stations to vote following their registration in hotels. As I predicted they have imported their new voters.
@087 bed: Liar
@Ollie McGlinchey: The Video is there to prove you wrong, You should be ashamed of yourself.
@087 bed: could you tell us where to look? wouldnt always go on them as sometimes its just gargle but I checked gript. You need to mention where since a link will be deleted.
@Sean oSuilleabhain: Watch – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wl8eONMIB4A
@087 bed: “as I predicted” – ha! Your smugness will never abate. And anyone who believes a word that racist gombeen says in your video should be ashamed of themselves. He’s a disgrace to this country.
They did not get my vote as they have been profiteering from the refugees. That is not right.
@Ulysses 31: well now I think I know who but could be wrong. Any idea when hidden camera show is back on? I miss it terribly
@Ulysses 31: I had to video record it.
@Sean Money: so that’s where you live?
@Ciaran O Donoghue: who are you?
@Sean Money: Didn’t have you as a lefty loon Sean?
There was an article pulled from the journal this morning. It had figures of earnings from Ukrainians on a guesthouse owned by the Healy Rae’s. Literally dissapeared while I was reading it. Puppet jouranalism.
@Vinny Clare: that’s only the half of it, have a Google of what there plant hire firm makes every year from Kerry CC. He had another house ready for rental aswell only he proceeded with the work before planning went through.
@Michael o connor: if that’s Nancy Myles then there are tenants in situ as we speak. He didn’t get permission to turn it into 30 apartments so it’s just a few rooms still.
nepotism
@Ulysses 31: Apologism
@john murray: Its all he/she/they knows. Petty and miserly person
You know….with all the noise surrounding the two brothers in the Dail, I honestly entirely forgot about their father……which just compounds how much of a cottage industry that family has made itself.
It’s either people couldn’t careless about their communities and don’t care what’s going on,but in a few years,u will have the people in Kerry giving out about their Communities and their County been so neglected with housing Health and everything else,the people of Kerry had too have seen Michael sitting with the Muslims,and praising them and how lucky Kerry is too have them,the more that come the better,and he will do everything he can to get the mosque built.all hotel owners who’s housing these migrants were runing mini busses to get them to vote,and were told who to vote for…I’ve not heard from any main media which not suprised,but Gript the only media to believe why haven’t they asked how is it legal to vote in this Country,when ur not a citizen.id like to know
@Kathleen Peters: Gonna need some people to stay, especially if we cant keep our own. That local garage job that no one wanted is about to become very popular. The franchise owner will be super pleased with the abundant cheap labour too.
And we sneer at the Americans who’d seemingly vote for a convicted criminal and yet this guy who assaulted a tourist (and who has also lost his appeal) can get elected? Probably being held aloft by the bully boy mates who helped him in the night.
We’ll never have change because the Irish love punishment, the Brits beat that into us. Let’s all complain about everything and then vote the same clowns in …. Well done
What is there to be proud of? Nothing and they know it. It’s a false sense of nepotism driven pride that should have shame in it’s place. Is the tweet from the very same elected chap who did the assault? Tells you everything there is to know then, they are money grabbing anti gay creatures and nothing will ever change that
‘This is my town!’ I’ll fight ya at the chip van! (with my 3 mates to help me too)
Speedy Nolan was another one elected that had the healy raes behind him.
@Michael o connor: pass the bucket, or the cheque book #corruption
Great news. More independents
Crooks and thugs!
Local elections deal with local issues. If I lived in kerry I’d vote for them! Very responsive to problems from people living there. A lot of the local politicians don’t seem to do much. At least they actually get results. Whatever about td’s and national issues. Cannot complain about the locals. Here in waterford we have terrible politicians who for decades have gotten us very little. One good labour councillor in waterford county. That’s it
@B Murphy: prove it, I am completely willing to bet they’d silence any Irish silly enough to be living there (although Kenmare is pretty) as quickly as the following people silenced me immediately and wrongly for a short email addressing their failures on disabilities, young people, justice, mental health: Mcentee, Varadkar, Harris, O Gorman
They’ve not done anything but put out hateful rural rhetoric in the past about minorities, show up on rte which they’d claim to despise also, switch it around to meet Muslims this year as the flat cap TD one did. They’re hookers, plain and simple and no offence remotely meant to sex workers
Very sad that they keep getting elected..
have your say
