The tax reform continues its path.
The day after the majority table convened to the Ministry of Economy defined the structure that will change the taxes of Italians, the chairman of the Finance Committee of the Chamber, Luigi Marattin, announced for
Wednesday the start of work on the tax delegation
in the commission with a novelty.
In fact, Marattin speaks of the hypothesis of moving from the current 5 income brackets for personal income tax to a three-rate system
, and not four as has been leaked so far.
"Let's not waste time in these parts. On Wednesday the fiscal delegation - the second phase of the tax reform - begins its journey in the Finance Committee in the Chamber", declared Luigi Marattin, questioned by phone. "That - continues the deputy from Italia viva -
will be the place in which to evaluate the next steps on Irpef - a three-rate system - and Irap - exceeding for everyone, not only for individuals
- as well as the other decisive aspects" including " corporate taxation, the reform of fiscal expenses, the reform of the methods of payment of taxes by the self-employed, the
reorganization of VAT
".
Among the issues under discussion in the context of fiscal delegation, explains Marattin, there are "decisive aspects" such as
"bringing together the tax legislation in simple and clear codes
, corporate taxation, the rapprochement between the civil and fiscal budget" . "We will do it - affirms the president of the Finance Committee of the Chamber - with the method that we have been following for a year, and which is clearly giving results: a
cooperative and merit-based approach
, in which everyone can recognize themselves. We started a year ago surrounded by skepticism, we are now a bit 'poking around' to make a comprehensive tax reform that makes our system a little simpler and a little lighter ".
The political agreement reached on Thursday at the treasury will be confirmed by the parties in the beginning of next week. The main aspects are that
the number of income tax brackets, the personal income tax, is reduced, especially favoring the middle class, while individual companies and the self-employed will no longer have to fill in the Irap quadrant
, because for them and for start-ups the tax is abolished. The two interventions will cost seven billion and one billion respectively, or will remain within the budget allocated by the government in action.
While the parties have shown themselves satisfied so far,
the social partners have instead risen
.
Confindustria
spoke of "choices without a vision of the future",
the CGIL
is waiting to be convened by the government to discuss it,
UIL
warns that intervening on the rates does not help workers.
