Rome, 9 July (LaPresse) – ‘Tax collection is a crucial issue. For greater autonomy and financial sustainability, it is now essential to increase and improve the tax collection capacity of local authorities.’ This was stated by Economy Minister Giancarlo Giorgetti during a hearing before the Fiscal Federalism Committee. According to Giorgetti, ‘a strategic rebalancing of the work of the Revenue Agency-Collection is essential, including the evaluation of a new collection agency dedicated exclusively to the management and recovery of local taxes, with personnel specialised in this area.’
