Federico Sturzenegger spoke about the changes in the AFIP

The Government announced this Monday the dissolution of the AFIP and the creation in its place of the Customs Collection and Control Agency (ARCA), with “a simplified structure”, made up of the General Directorates of Taxes and Customs. The new state entity will be in charge of Florence Misrahiwho until this Monday held the position of head of the AFIP.

With this decision, made official, higher positions are reduced by 45% and lower positions by 31%. In total, 34% of the structure’s public positions will be eliminated.

“We are in a process of rationalization of the State, we have said it millions of times that each expense that the government makes is a tax on the taxpayer that has to be paid either in inflation tax or in taxes and that each reduction in expenses is a relief. “Sturzenegger explained in radio statements.

Along these lines, the minister assured that the cut carried out in AFIP covers approximately “3,000” agents. “It is 15% of the plant, of one of the public sector organizations that has the most,” the official explained.

Regarding the employees who will be separated from the administration and their party affiliations, the minister analyzed: “It is a very crazy thing because the Constitution gives stability to the public employee, precisely to avoid the political use of public employment. But in Argentina everything happens. “Or Kirchnerism perverts all the rules. What they did is, when they are about to leave, they put people on the line and say ‘oh well, but people have stability.'”

In detail, Sturzenegger assured that the new changes are not “a tax measure.” In addition, the official also added: Efficiency and less evasion is a product of the management we do every day.”

Finally, the person in charge of the deregulation portfolio stated that the Government’s work continues along the lines of eliminating “tolls” and bureaucratic obstacles. “There is a resolution that says, when you import something, to release the container there must be a local industry overseer of that good,” exemplified Sturzenegger who then added: “Everything ended up being costs, over costs, opportunities for corruption, or a covert protectionism of certain industries.”

“The strongest anti-corruption agenda is the simplification and deregulation agenda,” concluded the minister.
