“We must revolutionize the relationship between the tax office and the taxpayer and ensure that evasion is tackled before it happens,” announced Prime Minister Georgia Maloney in an interview with the director of the newspaper Sole 24 Ore; “a law that will affect all sectors of taxation” and which “will also focus on workers and pensioners with special measures”.

The commitment, “consistent with available economic resources”, is to “continue significant tax cuts” and “replace basic income with concrete anti-poverty measures”, given that “all the objectives for which they were created have not been achieved”. explained the prime minister. In general, the priority for 2023 is to make it “the year of the great reforms that Italy has long awaited, but for which no one has had the courage”, as quoted by rainews.it.

As for the national debt, “the government pays the most attention to this issue, but a nation with a large national debt like ours should not lose sight of the sustainability of public finances,” Maloney emphasized.

“At the moment, the financial situation in Italy is under control: despite the increase in ECB interest rates, the spread is low and the debt has not exploded. In any case, we want to act as soon as possible: together with Minister Giorgetti, we are working to “protect” our debt from new financial shocks and win the confidence of depositors and investors even in the medium term” (Rador)
