The president of the Junta de Andalucía and candidate of the Popular Party of Andalucía for re-election, Juanma Moreno, has announced this Saturday that, if he continues governing after the regional elections on May 17, he will practically eliminate the Inheritance and Gift Tax on housing between siblings through a 99 percent bonus.
Moreno made this announcement during his speech in Granada, at the event presenting the PP-A candidacies for the regional elections. "We have to continue lowering taxes", Moreno defended, who criticized the fiscal policy of Pedro Sánchez's Government, in which the PSOE-A candidate for the Junta, María Jesús Montero, has served as first vice-president and Minister of Finance. According to him, the central Executive has "fried citizens with taxes," causing "suffocation for the middle and working classes" and SMEs, which "can no longer bear it."
"And we are going to continue doing what we have done until now, which has been to cut taxes", Moreno has assured, who maintains that these tax cuts have allowed to generate "even more income".
In his opinion, it would be a "most serious error" for the PSOE-A to intend "to reintroduce the inheritance and gift tax in Andalusia", since the bonus applied by his Government "has made life easier for many families" and has contributed to "breaking records in donations in recent years".
The Andalusian leader has alluded to the donations that parents make to children, whether to start a business, acquire a home or transmit it directly, and has explained that "problems in donations" have been detected between siblings who inherit a home.
For this reason, it has concluded that its Executive will extend the 99 percent bonus also to these cases.
