| Summary: | This note is a preliminary estimate of
the revenue foregone under customs duty because of the
various exemptions provided on imports. The estimates are
intended as an input into the policy process that seeks to
balance revenue raising measures, trade and tariff policy,
and competitiveness. The estimates are preliminary because
of data limitations. While the size of the revenue foregone
can be roughly estimated, data on the reason for the
exemptions was not available. Thus, targeted policy
recommendations cannot be provided at this stage. |
