The government-sponsored multi-bill was approved by the Parliamentary Standing Committee on Economic Affairs with a majority vote during its first reading today.

Deputy Finance Minister Giorgos Mavraganis underlined that its clauses constitute positive interventions in the battle against the dysfunctions of the taxation system and mechanism.

“The clauses we suggest contribute to the simplification of procedures and handle longstanding dysfunctions,” Mavraganis said.

The omnibus bill will be approved on Monday by the responsible committee during its second reading and on Tuesday and Wednesday will be discussed in parliament.
