Lawyers Reject Moratorium Bill

Lawyers in the country have expressed their rejection of the proposed tax moratorium bill by the Executive. They believe that the initiative has deficiencies that could affect taxpayers.

According to the lawyers, the proposal does not offer a real solution to the problem of delinquency in tax payments, as it only postpones tax obligations without addressing the underlying causes of the situation.

In the words of one of the consulted legal representatives: "This bill does not solve the real problem, it simply postpones it. It is necessary to work on measures that promote timely compliance with tax obligations."

The lawyers have also expressed their concern about the lack of clarity regarding the deadlines and conditions that would be established in the event of the tax moratorium being approved. They believe that the uncertainty generated by the proposal would hinder taxpayers' financial planning.

In light of these criticisms, it is expected that the bill will be reviewed and modified to address the concerns raised by the lawyers and ensure regulations that effectively promote compliance with tax obligations.
