Minister of Economy and Finance Adriano Maleiane has challenged the Mozambique Tax Authority to be more proactive in collecting revenue.

Speaking in Maputo province this Wednesday at Tax Authority induction ceremony, Maleiane said that effort should be made in monetary and fiscal areas to boost the agricultural sector.

“It is this appeal that I make, which, in fact, the whole of society knows to be the case. But today, on this occasion, it is important to focus on the agricultural sector. Just recently, we had a meeting in Manica with the productive sector, and now a meeting at the central level, to get those people who are able to to set about producing what is creating the most problems: vegetables and rice, for example. Even things that normally have nothing to do with the dollar are rising in price, because supply is small. Boosting the agriculture sector is therefore the primary effort being made in the monetary and fiscal areas,” Minister Maleiane said.
