Chapters delve into the evolution of the information exchange mechanism, assessing both its application and limits, and deftly analyse the Directive on Administrative Cooperation amendments. They also consider the necessity and effectiveness of continuously widening the tax transparency and exchange of information requirements, identifying possible gaps in judicial protection, and unveiling new avenues for scholarly research.Incisive and authoritative, this book will prove indispensable to researchers, academics, and students of constitutional and administrative law, European law, and tax law and fiscal policy.
