ROME. Green light to the amendment which allows “to evaluate the possible and progressive overcoming” of the superbonus on large-engined diesel cars, but “without greater burdens for the public accounts”. The House Finance Committee approved the text, modifying the aspect concerning financial coverage.
This is one of the items being analyzed by the commission which completed the examination of the reform delegation. The vote for the mandate for the speaker, to send the text to the classroom, is scheduled for next week. “Today’s action is a step forward in reforming our country’s tax system – commented the Deputy Economy Minister, Maurizio Leo – and I trust that there will be the same collaboration in the subsequent stages in parliament as I noticed today”. Leo thanked the commission for the work done: «We moved on the basis of the previous delegation, we assumed the cornerstones of the same and we developed it».
Ok to the payment of the Irpef advance for the self-employed
It will be possible to introduce an installment of Irpef advances and balances, but also to provide for a “progressive and possible” reduction of the withholding tax. This is foreseen by another amendment to the fiscal delegation. In fact, the idea is to allow the installment of the year-end down payment in subsequent periods.
“Thanks to the League, after 50 years and 3 years after my first proposal, with this tax delegation, half of the taxes will finally be paid on balance, after the year and income earned, and no longer in advance”. This was stated by Alberto Gusmeroli, head of the Tax unit of the Lega’s Economy department as well as co-rapporteur of the tax delegation. «A provision that is the result of three years of battles by the League and myself through a draft law, numerous amendments presented, discussions with three governments, agendas approved by three governments, a question approved by Istat and Eurostat and the support of several economic categories and citizens. Many self-employed workers and businesses will no longer end up in tax credit and the greater liquidity available to families and businesses will cause a positive shock to the economy”.
Incentives for new hires with super depreciation
Green light for “incentives for companies in the form of super-depreciation for new hires”. This form of incentives will complement the double-track IRES which provides for the reduction of the IRES rate for companies that employ resources in investments and hiring, in the two years following the production of income. There will also be a reduction in IRES for those companies that employ resources “in stable employee profit-sharing schemes”, as foreseen by the amendment presented by Luigi Marattin (Iv). Furthermore, for companies that do not benefit from these concessions, possible alternative tax incentives are envisaged.
Gradual overcoming of the super stamp
An amendment by the League establishes the principle of overcoming the super stamp with its gradual elimination. “A tax hated by the Italians, unfair and unjust as well as anachronistic which does not generate profits for the state coffers but limits the car market in which Italy is a world leader”, argue the deputies of the League, Riccardo Augusto Marchetti, Alberto Bagnai, Laura Cavandoli, Giulio Centemero and Alberto Gusmeroli.
The government cancels the incremental flat tax
“By approving our amendment (signed by Marattin, Del Barba and Sottanelli) the government has formally canceled the incremental flat tax for employees from the tax reform, and replaced it – as we suggested – with a detaxation of productivity bonuses” . This was stated by Luigi Marattin, deputy of Azione-Italia Viva, regarding the tax delegation. “Fiscal incentives for those who try harder and earn more are sacrosanct, but it must be done within an exchange between wages and productivity, because this is what our economy needs,” he concludes.
