PLF 2013 : Consultation continues between digital professionals, the Government and Parliament
These proposals have already been submitted to ministers Pierre Moscovici and Fleur Pellerin at their meeting on Thursday October 4. The professional organizations will also take part in the working meeting on this subject organized by Fleur Pellerin on Tuesday October 9.
Pending the content of the amendments to the Finance Act announced by the two ministers, the digital unions wish to inform Parliament of their analysis of the repercussions of the text presented by the Government, particularly for entrepreneurs in the innovative digital ecosystem. These proposals have been sent to Christian Eckert, General Rapporteur of the French Finance Commission.
In addition, the professional organizations representing digital companies have responded very favorably to the continuation of the consultation proposed by Fleur Pellerin on Tuesday, October 9, at two meetings at Bercy: one bringing together company representatives (AFDEL, SNJV, Syntec Numérique, Comité Richelieu), and the other investors.
Against a backdrop of economic crisis, they remain determined to continue, in the collective interest, to support the entrepreneurship of innovative companies, which need a clear and stable tax framework to encourage the consolidation of their development, a growth driver for our economy.
