Public invited to comment on proposed tax appeal changes

Parliament's Economic Committee has opened a public consultation on a bill amending the Tax Administration Act, which would set circumstances requiring taxpayers to pay 100 per cent of disputed tax before appealing a MIRA decision to the Tax Appeal Tribunal, up from the current 50 per cent. The bill was submitted by PNC Member for Funadhoo Mohamed Mamdhooh on behalf of the Government and referred to the committee on Monday, with feedback open until 12 noon on 5 November.
