#טאַקס שווינדל: קסנומקס% פון עוראָפּעאַנס ווילן אי.יו. צו טאָן מער צו קעמפן עס
Only death and taxes are certain in life - as the cliché goes - but that doesn't mean you have to like either. In the case of taxes, it's made worse by not everyone paying their fair share. According to the latest Eurobarometer survey commissioned by the European Parliament, 75% of all Europeans believe the EU should do more to fight tax fraud. Read on to find what the Parliament is currently working on to address the issue.
Italian S&D member Roberto Gualtieri, the chair of Parliament's economic committee, said: "75% of the EU population expects more EU action on the fight against tax fraud: it is necessary to respond effectively to this concern. The European Parliament is leading this fight, by adopting ambitious and concrete proposals to increase tax transparency and combat tax avoidance, calling for the automatic exchange of tax rulings between member states and public country-by-country reporting for multinationals, together with a common definition of tax havens and strong and concrete sanctions."We will continue to push member states to strengthen their tax policies, to close loopholes and to improve coordination at the EU and international level. It is only a matter of fairness towards EU citizens."
ספּעציעלע קאמיטעטן
In the wake of the LuxLeaks scandal MEPs set up two special committees on tax rulings. In its final report, which MEPs adopted in July 2016, the second special committee גערופן for an EU register of beneficial owners of companies, a tax heavens blacklist and action against the misuse of patent box regimes.
The Panama papers אָנפרעג קאמיטעט will start its work this autumn to assess how the European Commission and member states are fighting money laundering and tax evasion. This autumn MEPs will also start working on the public transparency rules for multinationals.

The Eurobarometer survey was conducted among 27,969 people representing all 28 member states on 9-18 April. It was set up to be representative of the population as a whole.
