Parliament on April 1 passed three new revenue measures in government’s bid to generate revenue of about ¢4 billion internally.
The revenue measures namely the Income Tax Amendment Bill, The Excise Duty Amendment Bill, and the Growth and Sustainability Amendment Bill are to enable government complete processes to secure a $3 billion International Monetary Fund (IMF) programme.
