• the follow up of the implementation of the recommendations of the last Tax Reform Commission that held in 2007 ;
• collaboration with other ministries and development partners in the search for efficient solutions for the obstruction to investments ;
• revision of the tax systems, to permit a fairer taxation of enterprises according to the level of their activities.
• the simplification of tax procedures with the implementation of computerised online procedures (e-declaration and e-payment)
• the publication of a User’s Guide of the taxation department and the elaboration of a general taxpayers’ charter, in order to reinforce the protection of the latter in the face of the tax authorities ;
• the pursuit of the densification of the network of international tax conventions in order to facilitate trade with several countries and attract investors.
