Premier Matteo Renzi on Monday
reiterated his plans to cut four taxes starting next year and
ending in 2018.
Speaking on TV talk show Porta a Porta, Renzi reaffirmed
that the municipal service tax TASI and the IMU property tax
will be abolished next year .
Renzi, who has already slashed the regional tax on
business IRAP, said his tax-cutting programme would continue in
2017 when the IRES business tax will be cut to 24%, "below
Spain".
Then, in 2018, "we can intervene on IRPEF (personal income
tax)," he said.
Renzi has said that taxation in Italy is "over the top".
He says taxes had to be cut to restore "social equity".
The premier said this was not electioneering.
It was not a question of "gaining consensus", he said.
