After a meeting with the small businesses in the Albanian capital, the
Deputy Minister of Finances, Nezir Haldeda, considered the oppositions
declarations for removing the small business tax an empty electoral
promise in which the business itself doesn’t believe.
“No one believes that the small business tax will be zeroed, because taxes not only are made simpler, but are also reduced. This tax was halved in 2007, and this very opposition was against that decision. Now they say that it should be removed”, Haldeda declared.
The Minister of Finances declared that what burdens the small businesses are the delays in the administrative procedures, for being in order with the tax regulations.
“We will serve better and faster to the small businesses, which are much more flexible, because they are able to close and open a new one in a few months. There is a minimum of requests and we are trying to make them simpler, with electronic access”, Haldeda declared.
When asked by Top Channel about the compensation of the former political prisoners, who are holding a hunger strike for the last 22 days, the Deputy Minister of Finances declared that they don’t want to speculate with this. “It will be treated according to the law and no one is above the law”, he declared.
