Rola najwyższych organów kontroli państwowej w eliminowaniu luki w podatku VAT w krajach europejskich. Analiza komparatywna.
Zbysław Dobrowolski
Abstrakt
Niniejsze opracowanie jest kontynuacją dotychczasowych badań dotyczących wielopłaszczyznowej roli najwyższych organów kontroli państwowej (NOK) we wzmacnianiu kapitału społecznego i usprawnianiu funkcjonowania organizacji publicznych. Stwierdzono, że organizacje międzynarodowe utworzone przez NOK powinny uwzględniać problem luki VAT w swoich strategiach kontroli. Ponadto powinny zacieśniać współpracę międzynarodową, w tym szkoleniową, biorąc pod uwagę, że nieprawidłowościom w rozliczeniach VAT występujących we wszystkich państwach członkowskich Unii Europejskiej sprzyja specyfika transakcji wewnątrzwspólnotowych. Słabości instytucjonalne w ściąganiu podatków świadczą o niskim potencjale państwa. Ze względu na brak publicznie dostępnych informacji nie ustalono, czy NOK z badanych krajów o największych rozmiarach luki w podatku VAT – Malty i Grecji – przeanalizowały przyczyny jej powstania. Badane NOK z innych krajów – Wielkiej Brytanii, Niemiec, Rumunii i Włoch – przeanalizowały przyczyny nieskutecznego zmniejszania rozmiarów luki podatkowej. Ich badania nie obejmowały jednakże sposobu zarządzania zasobami ludzkimi w instytucjach podatkowych. Tymczasem kwestia ta jest kluczowa nie tylko z punktu widzenia skuteczności prewencji podatkowej, ale szerzej z perspektywy wzmacniania kapitału społecznego. Sformułowane kierunkowe propozycje kontroli skuteczności ograniczania luki w podatku VAT, ze względu na swoją uniwersalność, mogą znaleźć zastosowanie w różnych krajach.
