«In particular, this document is absolutely unacceptable proposals to allow large companies to optimize the taxation by the simplified system. One of the most important of our requirements to the bill of the Cabinet — to withdraw the scheme laid down in it of tax evasion and minimize tax liabilities, to establish an optimal range of activities that do not fall under the simplified system. If this law goes into effect in its current form, it will be the next profanity reforms in the tax field “, — says Royal.
Yatsenyuk (NUNS deputy), with her offspring from the parliamentary rostrum, said — “That a simplified system that allows Ukrainians to earn for themselves and their families. Small businesses — not business, it is ordinary people who want to survive in these conditions. Business people — you, the Party of Regions, which hold the entire industrial sector of the country, the big capitalists. ”

The bill of the party “Front Zmin” is proposed to introduce a new institution, whose purpose — protecting the rights of taxpayers, and the task — monitoring the implementation of tax laws and the rights of taxpayers.

One of the authors of the government bill on simplified Oksana Prodan, head of the association of small and medium-sized businesses, “Fortress,” believes that bill, which prepared the Cabinet may worsen as the document was not adopted in its entirety , and It was made a parity between business and government.

“If in the process of finalizing the project will remove some restrictive rules, for example, VAT registration, or by type of activity — I only. Unfortunately, experience shows that such improvements are often used for opposing purposes. As we would not want to, but try to reduce rework the document to make shrink entrepreneurs “- says Oksana Prodan.

Sold also surprised by the fact that the project did not vote more than one opposition leader.

“The two of alternative bill were written based on the concept developed by representatives in the” Fortress “, which became the basis of a government document. In addition, prior to the vote it was decided — to take into account when finalizing the draft law and norms of best practice elsewhere Yatsenyuk project, and the Royal Project. I think the authors of the alternative bills were to vote for the document in the first reading. ”

It hints at the fact that the political games that are now taking on the background of the reform of the simplified system — a risky business, one might say crucial for small and medium-sized businesses.

To pass the bill as a whole MPs plan to end the current session. However, as said Vitaly Homutynnik, head of the Verkhovna Rada Committee on finance, banking, tax and customs policy, the adoption of certain rules of the bills will still be refined. “After the adoption of the bill will establish a working group to agree on all the issues concerning the taxation of small and medium-sized businesses. I think at the end of this session, we will adopt a balanced document “- summed up Homutynnik.
