Norway's Tax for Development Programme
Norway, through its Tax for Development programme, is supporting partner countries in increasing their tax revenues to better finance their own development and reduce poverty. While the Oil for Development looks at petroleum taxation in the context of integrated resource management, Tax for Development considers the taxation of non-renewable resources as an important element in the overall taxation policy and administration. While the perspectives and approaches are different, the main principles are the same so the two programmes complement one another (MFA, 2013b). The programme also reflected “a political wish to give higher priority to this area, as well as to see the tax-related work at country level in the context of Norway’s global efforts” (Norad, 2012). The MFA has overall responsibility over the programme, and the secretariat is located at Norad, serving as focal point for co-ordination, programme development, and quality control. |
