The Finance Bill, 2026, scheduled for debate in Parliament next Wednesday, contains a range of measures aimed at providing tax ­relief, boosting energy investment, and increasing fines and penalties across several sectors.

Finance Minister Davendranath Tancoo laid the bill in the House of Representatives yesterday.

In a subsequent release, the Ministry of Finance said the legislation addresses several key Government policy areas, including tax exemptions for approved pension fund plans and deferred annuity plans, pension reform for the protective services, revisions to the gaming tax regime under the Liquor Licences Act, and amendments to the Landlord Business Surcharge.
