@MForstater @fcablog @RichardJMurphy I think you know very well Maya that there's no assumption of the sort behind CbCR. 1/2

@MForstater @fcablog @RichardJMurphy It's a transparency measure to reveal location, and we've discussed it at length. 2/2

@alexcobham @RichardJMurphy says its primarily & unambiguously to ensure that govts of poor countries can deliver health & ed? @fcablog

@MForstater @RichardJMurphy @fcablog Expected revenue-generating role =/= CbCR based on assumg "tonne of non-oil/mining FDI in poorest ctys"

@alexcobham @RichardJMurphy @fcablog - if revenues not from FDI then where from?

@MForstater @RichardJMurphy @fcablog The assumption is that greater transparency can support more effective taxation. No tonnes involved.

@MForstater @RichardJMurphy @fcablog An assumption that I recognise you dispute, which is of course your prerogative. But...

@alexcobham @RichardJMurphy @fcablog It might well do. I remain unconvinced either way.
