Sales tax 'thrown out' by States of Guernsey
- Published
A proposal to introduce a general sales tax in Guernsey has been rejected by the island's government.
Deputy Mike Hadley claimed a 2-3% sales tax on the price of everyday goods could generate 拢30m a year to help fill the island's financial black hole.
However, an overwhelming majority of deputies rejected the proposals.
In 2009 deputies approved a five-year strategy aimed at saving up to 拢70m through cut backs and the sharing of departments' resources.
