ISLAMABAD: After the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) barred the caretaker government from moving ahead with its controversial plan to restructure the Federal Board of Revenue (FBR), caretaker Finance Minister Shamshad Akhtar said the restructuring roadmap approved by all stakeholders will be ‘operationalised’ by the elected government.
The caretaker minister revealed this plan during a televised address after the federal cabinet decided to restructure and digitise the tax watchdog, to which the ECP took an exception and asked the caretakers to stick to ‘routine’ and ‘non-controversial’ matters, which are “reversible” by the future government.
