Though there is much room for improvement in the current SVAT system, it is a fact that the home-grown system has resolved and provided much relief to many taxpayers, in that at present most of the taxpayers are not inconvenienced in relation to their working capital being help up at the tax office for long durations as in the past. The room for improvement of this home-grown system exists in relation to the degree of compliance, documentation requirement and forms to be maintained and to be forwarded to the IRD office periodically. Hence the attention of the policymakers should be to improve the current process, easing the compliance burden and not to throw the baby out with the bathwater. Abolishment of the SVAT scheme will only replicate the status that prevailed prior to the introduction of the scheme that increased the cost of capital for the businesses.
