Germany's Seehofer Considers FDP Tax Policy Unrealistic,
by Ulrika Lomas, Tax-News.com, Brussels
Friday, July 03, 2009
Having finally unveiled the Christian Democratic Union party’s election
programme and confirmed details of the party’s tax policy, Horst Seehofer,
leader of Bavarian sister party the Christian Social Union (CSU) has, once again,
gone on the offensive, fiercely criticising tax plans outlined by the Union’s
potential Coalition partner, the Free Democratic Party (FDP).
Referring to the FDP’s tax policy as unrealistic, CSU Chief Seehofer
has categorically stated that his party will not entertain the idea of any tax
rises, nor will it tolerate such a frivolous budgetary policy.
Endeavouring to reassure German voters that his party will not, under any circumstance,
consider increasing taxes, Seehofer emphasised that he would not be prepared
to sign a Coalition contract with any party that did advocate tax rises.
While acknowledging a current difference of opinion between the CDU and the
CSU regarding the announcement of a firm date for implementation of its planned
tax cuts, Seehofer denied any suggestion of a rift emerging between the two
parties.
Eager to make its own election announcement regarding a precise date, the CSU
is advocating 2011 as a possible date to begin implementation of the first round of tax cuts,
and 2012 as the date to introduce the second wave of reductions.
