Thirty four private companies are set to benefit from a government tax waiver worth Shs500b.

According to David Bahati, the State Minister for Planning, Parliament has on several occasions blocked the taxes from being budgeted for.

“We have come back to appeal to this House that we make commitments when we are approving loans, that some of the resources under counterpart funding are actually taxes and must be paid or written off; this is why we are here to ensure that we get this approval and clean up our records properly,” Mr Bahati said on Wednesday, according to Daily Monitor.

The House committee on Finance, in its report to Parliament, backed the government move, on the ground that the government incurred the arrears in the course of boosting the economy.
