Maneuver, tightening on tenders and more burdens even for condominiums

Voting begins: while the Senate is still in the process of sorting the amendments to the Budget bill, the Finance Committee of the Chamber has pronounced from today on the articles of the tax decree and on the related proposed changes. And the government will have to start to discover the cards on some nodes, starting from article 4 of the provision: the one that provides for the obligation for companies to pay tax withholdings instead of their suppliers. A standard designed to thwart the evasion of fake cooperatives and other subjects of dubious reliability, but which has sparked criticism from the productive world for the impact in terms of compliance for the honest.

PENALIZATION
On closer inspection, however, that rule risks penalizing not only companies but also other realities such as that of condominiums and therefore of families. The new obligation has a very general value, as the illustrative report indicates. So we are not just talking about contracts in the strict sense but in general about contracts. And the clients are not just the entrepreneurs, but all the tax substitutes resident in the national territory. This formulation, as Confedilizia has already pointed out, means that condominiums are also included. They should therefore assume the burden of making withholding taxes on workers engaged, for example, for restructuring or gardening work or other, with consequent higher costs that would inevitably reflect on the owners. Hence the request by Confedilizia to cancel the article (as requested by Confindustria) or at least to exempt condominiums from the new obligation. Always Confedilizia also pushes for corrections to the Budget law, starting from the extension of the application of the flat rate tax (to 21 percent) for store rentals, in force only for 2019. Amendments in this regard have been presented both by M5S that from the Pd and now awaits the go-ahead of the government.

PRESSING
Matteo Salvini, meanwhile, returns to ask for a "total and total fiscal peace for anyone who has a portfolio of Equitalia and the Revenue Agency". An amnesty? «Yes, a pardon. If I have to choose between taxing diapers, salad and biscuits or amnestying, I choose the amnesty all my life, "he underlines. Returning to the Budget Law, the pressing for corrections also concerns other issues. For example, the drive for electronic transactions. The PD presented amendments for the total cancellation of charges in the event of payments up to 15 euros. On the same theme, some details emerge on the cash-back mechanism proposed by the President of the Conte Council to encourage the renunciation of cash: the points accumulated by consumers would depend not only on the amounts but also on the type of product or service purchased, with the aim of favoring for example the costs for the plumber or the mechanic. The reimbursement could reach 2 thousand euros a year. M5S is also pushing for the introduction of a new subsidy: a tax deduction of 50 percent for the purchase of airbags for motorcycles or other protective devices. The goal is to limit the tragic effects of accidents that often involve young people. Finally, a transversal amendment coming from the Childhood commission proposes the allocation of a million to train teachers in the fight against bullying and cyber-bullying.
