The government will strive to
implement a flat tax with "the Constitutional principles of
progressivity that are not guaranteed today," Economy Minister
Giovanni Tria said Tuesday.
He also said the government wanted to make taxation more
favourable for growth.
In other remarks, Tria said taxes would fall "compatibly with
the financial space" available.
He also said that the government's 'fiscal peace' measure was
not a tax amnesty but a way of having a "friendly" tax system.
"We need to move from tax fear to the principle of good
faith," the minister said.
Lastly, Tria said EU growth was slowing and this would have
an impact on Italy.
