The government’s tax reform package is expected to be submitted to parliament by the end of October or early November, Finance Minister Makis Keravnos said on Monday.
Speaking during the discussion of the state budget at the parliamentary Finance Committee, Keravnos said the bills are currently under review by the Law Office, adding that the government’s goal is to table them in parliament as soon as possible.
He noted that the legislative package includes a risk analysis study. According to the minister, next year’s budget surpluses reflect the continued resilience of the economy, which will be supported through the tax reform.
Keravnos said the positive performance of the economy must be maintained and pointed to the reform as one of the key measures to achieve this.
“The tax reform is not social policy,” he said, “but it does include provisions related to family income, education, housing and the green transition.”
