Lightbulb Norwegian Tax Returns made public today

For anyone who has ever wondered what their boss earns or how much their friends and neighbours are worth: move to Norway. Oslo has set a new standard in transparency by publishing all citizens' tax records online.

Norwegians have been thrown into a frenzy of snooping following the publication of the latest tax records on the internet.
Not a new story but apparently these returns are listed on their tax website today. Seems it lists tax returns for everyone in the country & I was told today lots of people searching co-corkers and neighbours details. Would this work in Ireland? Not sure if I would favour it...

Interesting that Norway PM only earns E125k in a country with very high standard of living. No chance our "PM" would vote for something like this on his salary.
