Warsaw, 05/18/2016 (ISBnews) – The new tax replaces, among others, PIT and contributions to ZUS could enter into force in 2018., After the preparation of laws and changes in the systems of the Social Insurance, said the head of the Standing Committee of the Council of Ministers Henryk Kowalczyk. He maintained, too, that there will be changes in VAT next year.
“This is the year 2018. It is easy to prepare the relevant laws, but the most difficult is later found to change the system, which would be adapted to this. For example, ZUS needs a minimum of nine months to make this system change. It concerns the uniform tax rates, or the retirement age, “- said Kowalczyk in an interview with RMF FM radio, answering the question of when the new tax could enter into force.
According to him, the declaration to raise the tax-free amount is consumed in a single tax. “What is the current PIT-I will not be up to 8 thousand. Accrue” – he added.
Kowalczyk stressed that changes to reduce the number of pensionable government wants to pass this year. “The entry into force need at least nine months, because the ZUS so much wants to time to modify the system, so it will be 2017 or January 2018,” – said Kowalczyk.
In his opinion, the budget is able to withstand, otherwise “we would not do.” Referring to the cost of this change for the state budget, he said: “Maximum expenses (lowering the retirement age) starting at 3.5 billion zł, then gradually grow, and after a few years, somewhere around 10 years reach 12 billion zł. And then start fall”.
Kowalczyk does not rule out the introduction of VAT for companies, which would replace the current CIT. “You can consider it. That first attempt even longer quasi-fiscal tax as an advance on CIT. We save it in the act of supporting the shipbuilding industry. As is reasonable, then you may want to expand,” – he added.
At the same time stressed that this is a very general idea and do not reject it. “Although we have no experience in this regard, but such a provision in the Act is” – he added.
According to him, it is possible that the public debt to GDP ratio will cease to grow. “My dream is to stop rise in relation to GDP. Nominally, it probably will not work for this term, but if we stop growth of public debt to GDP ratio at the end of the term, it will be our success,” – said Kowalczyk.
He added that such a decline took place in 2007 during the reign of Justice, when GDP growth was approx. 7%.
The Minister believes that there are potential savings to implement eg. A administration. “I think that several billion is, it can not in one year, but at some point, yes. I think there are also savings when it comes to generally about the health care system. He is now inefficient – said the head of KSRM.
He also said that work on 15 percent. CIT continues. “it is work in progress and there is a declaration that within a few weeks will it to the Standing Committee and the government,” – he added.
question if the VAT rate will be changed, he said: “next year we plan no special changes in terms of VAT rates.”
