Information received concerning the statement on “Two-Pillar solution to address tax challenges arising from the digitalization of the economy” [hereafter- Two Pillar Solution], agreed upon on 8 October 2021, under the OECD/G20 Inclusive Framework Base Erosion and Profit Shifting Project (BEPS). Concerns have been raised about the scope and contents of the announced agreement. Among those concerns, several low and middle-income countries consider that the agreement does not respond to their needs and would diminish their fiscal space, especially at a time when countries are seeking to recover from the crisis resulting from the Covid-19 pandemic. In turn, the Two Pillar Solution would negatively affect their ability to meet the needs of their populations and thus to realize human rights, particularly economic, social and cultural rights, and the right to development.Alleged victims: - More details... | |
