Head of trade unions: reduction of tax burden missing in tax reform

The Lithuanian Trade Union Confederation supports the government’s proposal to aggregate income as a welcome breakthrough, but misses the reduction of tax burden provided for in the tax reform plan for lowest and middle income earners, the leader says.

The only worry is the reduction of 32% income tax rate to 25% for the people earning over 60 average wages per year, Inga Ruginienė noted, adding she is also concerned about the impact of further comments on the draft proposals in the Seimas.
