The Uganda Revenue Authority (URA) has released a list of 282 tax defaulters, including five Members of Parliaments from the ruling National Resistance Movement (NRM).
The MPs on the list, which URA, has described as “shame list” of tax evaders include Kabula County MP James Kakooza, Katerera County MP Hatwib Katooto, Dokolo North MP Paul Amoru, Moroto Municipality MP Fred Angella and former Bunyole County MP, Emmanuel Dombo, who is the spokesperson of the ruling NRM party.
According to the public notice issued on Monday morning by URA, all the 282 tax evaders have been given seven days to settle their outstanding liabilities.
“Whoever will not clear their outstanding liabilities within the said period shall be enforced upon in accordance with the relevant tax laws,” URA officials noted in their notice to tax defaulters.
