May 13, 2013

BRIDGETOWN, Barbados - The challenges confronting the just re-elected Freundel Stuart administration are already showing up in the Estimates of Revenue and Expenditure laid in Parliament yesterday. Government is projecting that total revenue coming into state coffers for the 2013-2014 financial year will fall to $2.59 billion from the $2.62 billion approved for 2012 -2013. The administration estimates that it will raise $1.2 billion from value added tax receipts, $776.70 million from taxes on income and profits, $157.59 million from property taxes and $212 million from international trade.
