Click to view full size

Saying “time was longer than twine”, Finance Minister Davendranath Tancoo is warning that jail is coming for tax evaders.

“Jail is coming for some people because this UNC Government, unlike the PNM government, is not going to facilitate tax evaders,” he said, as he wound up the debate on the Trinidad and Tobago Revenue Authority Repeal bill in the House of Representatives early yesterday morning.

The TTRA Repeal bill was passed by 27 votes for/11 against.
