 MINISTRY OF FINANCE AND PLANNING

 

INVITATION TO STAKEHOLDERS TO PARTICIPATE IN THE UPCOMING PROCEEDINGS OF THE TASK FORCE ON TAX REFORM IN PREPARATION FOR BUDGET 2023/24

 

          The proceedings of the Task Force on Tax Reform in preparation for Budget 2023/24 are scheduled to get underway in October 2022.

        Every year, the Task Force provides a structured forum for discussion of various issues relating to tax policy and administration. Its deliberations have constituted a vital input to policy makers and has helped to shape the country’s tax regime and, through dialogue and analysis, facilitated an effective, transparent and efficient resolution of a number of issues.

         The Government aims at improving business environment in order to attract investments, facilitating growth of small and medium business enterprises for sustainable economic growth; enhancing voluntary tax compliance; broadening the tax base; mainstreaming the use of ICT System in tax administration; strengthening enforcement of tax laws in order to address tax evasion challenges and minimize revenue leakages; and streamlining levies and fees in order to improve business and investment environment.

        The Task Force invites submission of proposals from Government officials, private sector, civil society, religious organizations, academia, research institutions and other specialists in public finance. The submissions from interested parties should be in writing, stating clearly: -

  1. Firm(s) Organization(s) or Association(s) being represented;
  2. The proposed changes in tax or non-tax revenue, including analysis of the sectors, regions or taxpayers that would be affected;
  3. The projected impact on the economy and Government revenues in the year of implementation and outer years;
  4. The rationale and justification for the proposed revenue policy changes and, in particular, analysis of the means by which the proposal will help the Government achieve its overarching economic, fiscal and poverty-reduction objectives; and
  5. Where proposals entail a reduction in Government revenues (even in the short term only), there must be alternative proposals which set out explicit and credible measures consistent with the overall thrust of the Government’s fiscal policies to offset the proposed revenue shortfall.

We are looking forward to having a productive engagement and exchange of ideas this year among stakeholders and the Government.
