The government has decided to create a tax policy unit (TPU) within the Domain of Revenue Division for making the tax policy of the country, highly-placed government officials told Propakistani here on Monday.
Officials said that the Special Assistant to the Prime Minister on Revenue has convened a meeting on the creation of the TPU and future course of action. The meeting was attended by the senior officials of the FBR.
The proposed TPU would be created within the Revenue Division comprising both the tax officials as well as private sector experts for the drafting of the tax policy. Under the proposal, the tax policy would not be completely taken away from the FBR, but tax officials would continue to remain part of the tax policy. The ultimate objective is to separate the tax policy from the revenue administration.
