Italy, France, Germany and
Spain have signed a joint document renewing calls for the
European Union to introduce a system to raise more tax from
Internet giants such as Google and Amazon. The document has been
released three days before the summit at Tallinn, where the
heads of State and government will discuss a 'web tax'. The
digital economy has "profoundly" changed the way to do business
and "the way in which it must be taxed" the document said. As a
result "a profound revision of the current taxation system" is
needed to ensure it is "efficient, fair and transparent".
