Unbiased look at the Sint Maarten Elections
PHILIPSBURG--There was mixed reaction from Members of Parliament (MPs) to the tax reform presentation delivered by Finance Minister Ardwell Irion on Monday.
United Democrats (UD) MP Sarah Wescot-Williams, one of the MPs who requested the meeting more than a year ago, said that while it is appreciated that MPs received some indication of possible tax reforms, the presentation makes one wonder where government stands on the issue of tax reform, not just on the status of the reform trajectory, but on tax proposals such as land tax, sin taxes and transaction taxes, amongst others.
