The context for this virtual meeting discussion was the near inevitability of a reform of the tax system in the near future.

To that we can now add a fourth whammy, the economic and fiscal impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.

The upward pressure on public spending caused by ageing populations mean that taxes will have to increase, services will have to be cut or public debt levels will have to rise beyond what most economists believe is sustainable in the long-term. Something will have to give and at some point over the next decade the problem will become acute. This report focuses on the major direct taxes and those that impact most directly on business and employment.
