The Minister of Finance Planning and Economic Development has developed and presented the tax revenue measures for FY 2017/18 contained in the Excise Duty (Amendment) Bill 2017, Value Added Tax (Amendment) Bill 2017, The Income Tax (Amendment) Bill 2017 and the Tax Procedures codes Bill, 2017. For the first time, we have observed that the bills were submitted along with certificates of financial implication, a practice that we commend. The revenue measures proposed in the three bills will raise an additional UGX 30.7bn specifically from the Excise Duty Amendment Bill 2017.en
