TRA load development councils.

By Humphrey Shao
TAX Payment for any nation on earth is the main source of income and a way of strengthening relations between citizens and their nation the world many countries have depend on income taxes and various external and internal as the axis to operate the government in general.

But here at home wondered whether the government failed authorities consider them a strong response to all those who allegedly cast them to our Board on a matter of getting revenue, does the law say in it? Then I decided to sink further monitor this issue.

These complaints are often provided in the various sessions of the committees, the House of Councillors, even in those of the rank held by the county executives of counties in our municipality.

In accordance with the laws of the state financial street of  1982 Section 14, states that each council should ensure it adds revenue from its own resources to provide community service.

Property taxes are one of the main sources of hot entry earnings drugs agreed by the Council and central government after the cancellation of various tax sources that are brought public nuisance.

Revenue collected from buildings is the source easy to earn money councils as this source Monitored well can board our grips and myths of dependence from donors and grant money that often comes late in a project implementation or delivery, and left to provide the balance after a year The money involved is finished.

Repayment tax very soon a long history of 3,000 years iliyopitaenzi rule by Kingship were takiw I send you money for them if they do not rent.

In America about 200 years passed  buildings tax were collected for the purpose of getting money for the use of the land army during the war with France.

President Theodoro Roosevelt (1901-1909) and President Woodrow Wilson (1913-1921) both from America, were seen in state be appropriate to develop the collection of taxes on buildings due to its beneficial one if earnings enable the host operating income also recorded by the government  for social services used by rich and poor together.

Here I get to talk in detail fasi and official relationship of Temeke Municipal Joyce Msumba explains how Temeke Municipal failed to achieve its goal due to the revenue authorities in the country (TRA) failure to collect sufficient funds derived from property taxes.

She states that she submitted a statement of income and expenditure for the deputy director of the Municipal Temeke Engeniere Gaston Gassana before the councilors, Executive, People and mamber of the Press on the council of the month March 2011 and the committee of permanent head of the department  Machicho Jane explained by estimates of Shs 2,139,373,000,00 collect from property taxes for fiscal year 2010/2011 Temeke suceed to collect Tshs 415,483,488,00 which is equivalent to only 19% percent.

The situation has sparked many questions they asked when the council as the executive council of the TRA that they questioned why and what is the problem, how TRA Board  failure and income.

Msumba explained that the TRA act as Teller's window stay and wait while the taxpayers of the buildings is understood any merchant or any resident of Temeke does not pay  tax window without using force or be educated

She explains that there are no mobilization, education and monitoring large taxpayers, especially those from Tanzania Revenue Authority.

She explains that In Tanzanaia Assessment done to identify a number of buildings in 1993 and 1994 and repeated in 1998 under a World Bank fund.

"Council of Temeke Manispa  evaluation using only its own executives in 2001 to 142,000 in 2003 to identify houses and records its in normal rate of under ten thousand shillings without  quality, location or owner homes clad with how it was able  because there are the houses of mud and grass on and there are those of brick and corrugated glass, "said Msumba.

She explains that unfortunately in 2008 July TRA reverted role corrected taxes on buildings and parliament Glorious Republic of Tanzania, and they took the figures for the number of buildings as and Count as taxpayers they this board nuisance major taxpayers with housing grass.

She argues that this move was made in parliament and also the venerable Rainald A. Rope (MP) suggested that the exercise of arbitrary assessment held a big annoyance for taxpayers and the scrutinized anew.

This means that with the vision of 2025, the National Strategy for Growth and Poverty Reduction (PRS II), the Millennium Goals (MDGs), the CCM election manifesto of 2005, the goals of the revenue authority in the country.

Tanzania in an improvement of five years 2008 / 9 to comply with the law of fedaha 2012/13na local 'chapter 290', one of the goals is to handle and forgiving taxes on their homes than the elderly aged 60 years that their economic situation doesnot  pay taxes and be given authority and leadership of local government involved that really can not afford to pay taxes and reduce the nuisance.

Authority in collaboration with TRA  City Council and Borough of Ilala, Kinondoni and Temeke did re-evaluation of the buildings last year from May 2010 and continuing until now, under the local government and 0.2 in 1983 and revised in 2008 give the authority responsible for listing all buildings and deal value to identify all buildings in the city and what is its value.

Msumba  states that Temeke Municipal Councils are among the Fortune with a large corporate buildings, Industry, Port and the international sports arena of the State, which alone are good sources of property taxes but to note is that the companies and other factory owners to avoid paying property taxes and the revenue authority not to consider them  any crack.


She explains that according to the TRA tax collections of buildings from owners of large buildings in Industry and Temeke Municipality between July 2008 until March 2011 that is 500,000,000,00 between 1.3 billion paid to municipalities that are required from companies which Temeke leaving small taxpayers.

She explains that if the TRA could well councils manage tax collection  here for property taxes when they enable councils to improve infastructure method, garbage disposal and public education.

He notes that the revenue authorities have failed to keep clear records of who calipers and who has not paid the rent of his building and bring inconvenience to the borough failed to cease its .

So then from this situation, I suggest authority to hava capacity offices of the Division in order to receive the rent of buildings and instead of relying on the office just to keep executives of revenue among offices of the Council is to reduce nuisance taxpayers, it is also necessary to improve their memory.

So it's time to go to the TRA started using modern technology developers who pay for identified and non identified pay and non pay atua consider them with enough to declare in the media.
