From 28 July to 2 August 2021, a string of virtual Task Force meetings of the BRITACOM were held online to discuss work progress of the final reports of the five Task Forces established at the first BRITACOF, solicit opinions from relevant parties, and propose next steps of work progress. The meetings were informative and appealing.

Chairs of five Task Forces hosted the meetings and updated participants on the progress of the draft final reports on Enhancing Tax Administration Capacity, Expediting Tax Dispute Resolution, Following Rule of Law and Raising Tax Certainty, Digitalization of Tax Administration, and Streamlining Tax Compliance. Members of the Task Forces and Advisory Boards expressed views on how to improve the draft final reports, proposed effective solutions to practical difficulties and measures to further task force work, and reached broad consensus on next steps.

All participants spoke highly of the virtual meetings and agreed that the online events charted a course for future work of Task Forces. Based on the discussions and suggestions, the five Task Forces will give final touches to the final reports to be released at the Second BRITACOF on 7-9 September 2021.
