We question the necessity of the tax and its fairness. We worry that its economic impact will harm European competitiveness.

Finally, we note that the current proposal may violate principles of double taxation and subsidiarity.
For these reasons, we urge that more time be taken to determine the consequences and benefits of the DST proposal.
