Unfortunately few people comply with tax obligations due to a deep mistrust of public institutions and a widespread lack of experience with paying taxes. Most individuals and businessmen have little knowledge of their rights and responsibilities and the tax administration, and fail to see any link between taxes and government spending.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In fact, Taxes have been raising irrespective to very little improvement in the quality of schools, hospitals, transport and other services provided by the government. National debt has been increasing; unless action is taken to tackle unsustainable public spending future generations will inherit the consequences of today\u2019s extravagance. High taxes damage the country\u2019s economy and our way of life. Burdensome taxation stunts economic growth and tens of thousands of jobs are being lost as huge tax bills reduce incentives to work, investment and saving. In the long-run, higher taxes make us all poorer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>TATA is envisioned to&nbsp; ensure the Government remains responsive to the needs of its taxpayers and ensuring the country\u2019s economic growth. By advocating for reforming the tax system itself and determine if there are ways to simplify tax rates, broaden the tax base, and eliminate special exemptions among other. Another important aspect of tax reform is to ensure that internal and external checks are in place to address more taxpayers issues, reach more communities and sustainably influence policy and legislation, Consequently, the taxpayers are central to our strategies, the media, business associations, religious bodies, funders and professional associations are our key partners in attaining the lower, just and fair taxation in our country. We will endeavor to engage deeper for our mutual benefit.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;Voices of Taxpayers for fair and just taxes and accountability Taxpayers Association of Tanzania (TATA) is an independent, non-partisan OrganizationRead More<\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","template":"","meta":{"_eb_attr":"","footnotes":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tata.or.tz\/sw\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/2"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tata.or.tz\/sw\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tata.or.tz\/sw\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tata.or.tz\/sw\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tata.or.tz\/sw\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/tata.or.tz\/sw\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/2\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tata.or.tz\/sw\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
