Press Release: A Step Forward in the UN Tax Convention Negotiations
The Global Alliance for Tax Justice (GATJ) submitted joint comments to the UN Ad Hoc Committee on the zero draft Terms of Reference (ToR) for a United Nations Framework Convention on International Tax Cooperation (UN Tax Convention). The comments were submitted through the Civil Society Finance for Development (CS FfD) Mechanism Tax Justice Workstream which is facilitated by GATJ and Eurodad, a member of GATJ. The joint submission, signed by over 200 civil society organisations and trade unions, highlights the role of international tax cooperation in providing public resources, particularly to fulfil the international commitments related to development, human rights, and environmental protection.
