As of Monday, consumers will be able to obtain from banks a special tax card that can be used to electronically record shopping transactions and keep a running total of expenses.
A key purpose of the card, according to Finance Ministry officials, is to help shoppers keep track of their purchases for their income tax returns without hoarding bags full of receipts.
The card has the appearance of a credit card but will not bear any personal details. White and emblazoned with the words “receipts card,” it will also feature a 10-digit code which links to the holder’s tax registration number (AFM).
Shoppers who want to record the value of their shopping transactions should present the card to the retailer as they pay. The retailer will swipe the card through the point of sale (POS) machine used for credit cards transactions and the information will then be passed onto the bank that has provided the machine. At the end of each month, the lender will send the information to the Finance Ministry.
According to Finance Ministry sources, taxpayers will be able to check what amounts they have passed through the cards on the Internet via the Taxisnet site.
Finance Ministry officials believe that the card will help boost state revenues, mainly from value-added tax, making it harder for business owners to conceal sales figures.

Lotta anti evasione fiscale.
 
La "sesta tranche" verrà rilasciata...
Prepariamoci alla battaglia intorno allo swap ;).
Sarà qui che la Grecia (e noi) si gioca buona parte della battaglia.
Secondo le previsioni dell'IIF, con gli accordi precedenti, il debito/PIL dovrebbe ritornare sotto i 100 entro il 2020.
Forse una prospettiva troppo lontana, per alcuni.
 
PM holding emergency cabinet meeting Sunday



Budget for 2012 and plan to slash civil service to top the agenda ahead of further troika inspections

Prime Minister George Papandreou is to chair another emergency cabinet meeting at 6 p.m. on Sunday, sources said on Saturday, noting that the talks would focus primarily on finalizing the national budget for 2012 which is to be submitted in Parliament on Monday.
The premier is also to discuss the thorny issue of the public sector and seek the backing of his ministers for a controversial plan to put thousands of civil servants in a so-called “labor reserve scheme” that would see them receiving a heavily-docked salary for 12 months before their status is reviewed.
Following a rush by civil servants to claim early retirement before fresh wage cuts impact their pensions, the government is reportedly also considering another scheme that will see public sector workers close to retirement age being placed on standby on a reduced salary for at least a year before they can claim their pension. According to sources, foreign auditors are unlikely to accept this plan and may call for sackings in the public sector both this year and next.
A wave of vehement protests by civil servants, who occupied ministry buildings on Friday, has complicated the government’s task of finalizing reforms ahead of further scheduled inspections by auditors next week.
But rifts within the ranks of ruling PASOK are believed to pose another barrier to the completion of an across-the-board civil service pay structure and a scheme to phase out of employment at least 30,000 civil servants.
According to Finance Ministry officials, talks with representatives of Greece’s foreign creditors were “positive and constructive” but the auditors are to remain in Greece until Friday October 7 to complete their audit.
A report to be issued on the audit’s completion will determine whether or not Greece has met the necessary criteria to qualify for the disbursement of the next tranche of rescue funding, valued at 8 billion euros. According to German Finance Minister Wolfgang Schaeuble however, a final decision on the release of the funding will be made on October 13 during the next extraordinary meeting of eurozone finance ministers.

PM hails Qataris' trust as mining deal is signed

Investments from Qatar in Greece show trust in the debt-choked country's economy, Prime Minister George Papandreou said on Saturday after meeting Qatar's Emir Sheikh Hamad bin Khalifa al-Thani.
A senior official at Greek building firm Ellaktor told Reuters on Saturday that Qatar Holdings had signed a deal to buy a 10 percent stake in London-based European Goldfields from Ellaktor and will invest another $600 million in the mining company.
The 1.2-billion-euro investment will create 1,500 new jobs upon its completion, the Athens News Agency reported.
Speaking to reporters after the meeting with the emir, Papandreou did not mention any specific deals.
Qatar played a key role in sealing a merger deal in the battered Greek banking sector in late August. It will own about 17 percent of the lender that will be created by the merger of Alpha Bank and Eurobank.
"We have built a very strong bond of mutual respect, and we Greeks are especially pleased that this bond leads to investments in our country,» Papandreou said.
Qatar has shown in the past interest in real-estate projects in Greece and has eyed the 550-hectare former Athens airport at Elliniko that is up for grabs under a five-year privatisation drive worth 50 billion euros the government is pushing.

Il Qatar ha un pò di soldi da spendere ...
Papandreou, potrebbe avergli chiesto di acquistare "debito greco".
Il Qatar, fedele alleato di Washington, potrebbe dare una mano.
