Gov't Focused on Tight Fiscal Policy

Gov't Focused on Tight Fiscal Policy: "Tight expenditure controls, hinged on a firm Tax Reform Programme, will be the hallmark of the government’s fiscal policy as it commences the 2012-2013 financial year.

Governor-General, His Excellency, the Most Hon. Sir Patrick Allen, in delivering the Throne Speech on May 10th at the State Opening of Parliament.

In his speech entitled, ‘Nation on a Mission’, which outlined the government’s plans and programmes for the period, the Governor-General noted that fiscal prudence is essential in the current international climate, which, while showing some signs of recovery, remains unsettled.

The tax programme, he said, will seek to, among other things, widen the tax net, introduce more equity in the system, and stimulate investment, growth and employment."
