VAT fraud the result of a false system
March 24, 2010
Sir,
Regarding ‘Commission to fight VAT fraud schemes‘:
The principle that you can reclaim money when you fill in a tax report is the real cause of the fraudulent situation.
It should be replaced with a simple tax on turnover, with no claiming back.
