Next week the States meet for probably the most important debate of their five-year term. Policy & Resources will make a third attempt to get a majority for its plan for the largest tax rises in decades — which includes a new goods and services tax but also income tax and social security reductions targeted at the least affluent half of islanders. Its plan faces numerous challenges from deputies who want to see increases in income tax or company tax instead or, in some cases, hardly any tax increases at all. But perhaps P&R's greatest challenge comes from the self-styled 'fairer alternative' group of deputies, who came closest to getting a majority for an earlier version of their plan the last time the States debated tax and spending earlier this year, and who have submitted revised proposals for next week's debate. Ahead of that debate, in the second part of a Politics Podcast double-header, our reporter Matt Fallaize speaks to P&R president Peter Ferbrache. Hosted on Acast.
