Thank you, Mr. Neil Adams –for writing in our favour

IT is not very often that the Guyana Revenue Authority (GRA) and its Commissioner-General, Mr. Khurshid Sattaur receives well deserved credit and words of commendation for its arduous task of revenue collection, and taking a tough stance against those bent on breaching the tax laws we administer for their own selfish gains. So, when we see persons like Mr. Neil Adams willing to take the risk of writing in favour of our work, we are indeed heartened and encouraged. Note has been taken of letters written by Mr. Neil Adams and published in the Guyana Times on October 21 and November 30, 2014.

Mr. Adams’ comments come as water lily out of a murky pond. The GRA has a mandate, and will do all in its power to execute that mandate for the benefit of all Guyanese and will remain focus on collecting state revenues.
We wish to thank Mr. Adams for recognising the fervent efforts that Mr. Sattaur and the hardworking staff of the GRA have been making over the years to safeguard the nation’s revenue.
On October 21, 2014, Mr. Adams, in a letter titled, “GRA has unenviable task of ensuring Gov’t gets fair share of taxes,” rightfully said that “for us to succeed as a nation, the all-important dollar – millions of it – must be collected in a timely and honest manner.…” and that “all illegal and unsavoury practices to undermine the rights of the people to earn their fair share of taxes is a criminal act and should be condemned for all its worth.”
Amidst many challenges, the GRA remains resolute in administration of the tax laws and in seeking out those who are determine on a daily basis to defraud the State.
