The Minister of International Development Signed three Tax for Development Agreements
‘To support developing countries in their endeavors to finance their own development, fight poverty, and provide citizens with basic services, tax revenues must be increased. That’s why Norway has more than doubled its support since 2015 to help build better tax systems in developing countries’, said Minister of International Development Åsmund Aukrust.
