Interim report: Commission of Inquiry into Tax Administration and Governance by the South African Revenue Service

The Commission of Inquiry into Tax Administration and Governance by the South African Revenue Service has released an Interim Report. "What is clear to the Commission is that SARS reeks of intrigue, fear, distrust and suspicion. We have heard of it repeatedly in evidence, and we have encountered it ourselves. The trajectory of modernisation, that had been in the making for a decade, was summarily stopped when the current Commissioner, Mr Tom Moyane took office on 27 September 2014, and the systems are degenerating as technology advances."
