A day of debate, a hundred re-written pages and dozens of amendments of the majority: this is which says a lot about the degree of dissatisfaction of the elect at the reform of the tax (TP) draft, reviewed in open starting next week. Meeting in the Finance Committee yesterday, members adopted a completely new version of the legislation, drafted by the rapporteur of the budget Gilles Carrez (UMP). In outline, nothing changes: the TP on the equipment will be properly removed on January 1, 2010, foregone for communities being compensated by sitting on the added value and the land tax. But the version of members, which can still evolve during the debates, is more acceptable both for a little less favourable to large enterprises and local elected officials.
Several measures should calm the grumbling of elected officials, and particularly of Mayors: the main aims to restore the fiscal relationship between enterprises and the intercommunalités, by giving the latter a part of the further reassessment, sitting on the added value, to the tune of EUR 2.3 billion. It is as much lost to the departments, which would inherit in exchange for several taxes paid by households who went to Commons (rights of transfer...). A new interview is scheduled this afternoon between François Fillon and local elected officials to discuss compromise, at the National Conference of executives.
Calculation at the group level
In parallel, Gilles Carrez proposes to reduce the gain, sometimes abusive, some large companies. "Amendment reduced the cost of the public finance reform," he says in the explanatory statement, without specifying the size of the economies. The gain of the business was previously estimated at EUR 4.3 billion in cruise regime. Measures for reducing taxes for companies lose, among those who employ many employees (acting...) apply only to those making less than 7.6 million of turnover. Powerful groups, such as Adecco, have little reason to take such measures, say MEPs. Similarly, large groups will not escape the maximum taxation (1.5 of the value added) by splitting their sales by subsidiaries: the tax will be calculated at the level of the group, and then distributed by communities based on the number of employees.
If an agreement seems possible for the Assembly, senators do not appear to be satisfied with such a compromise. Yesterday, the President of Senate, Gérard Larcher (UMP), said that he wished to postpone the reform of local taxation in the first half of 2010. Very concerned about the financial situation of 15 departments (Indre, Lozère, hollow, etc.), which "will be in breach of financial expenses in the next five years", Gérard Larcher has requested that a fraction of the CSG, or the contribution of "solidarity" (CSA) is vested in the departments, even if the rate increase. "We can not to let them file the balance sheet under the pretext that they must support the intergenerational solidarity", he said before the social information journalists. "Parliament cannot accept a decline in decentralization." "I am optimistic about a radical change in this text," found on RTL, Jean-Pierre Raffarin.
We tried to negotiate it collided with a wallThis is what was observed during the last decadesThere was more than a thing to do was to sell assets We are a pair the gourmet and the neophyteThe part is more difficult for the euro areaNothing significant was agreed to this dayIts core capital is about to be increased to 8On the contrary And under Chirac and SarkozyThis cycle ends with chronic hyperglycemia of bloodThe two giant walls are entrouverts on a deep night
