⊙ reporter Zhang Xia 0 Editor Heng Dao Qing as one of the important means of structural adjustment, the reform of tax system has become a topic of concern for all circles.  Reporter recently learned from the authoritative channels, in order to increase economic restructuring, improve the quality and efficiency of economic development, the Director of the department is brewing a series of tax reform, including speeding up the promotion of resource tax reform.  An authoritative person close to the state administration of taxation told reporters that the resource tax reform is likely to be introduced next year, the main direction is to expand the scope of the resource tax, progressive tax rate, the way to levy from the current from the measure to the price levy. "Reform of the resource tax, first of all, to expand the scope of the collection of more resources products included." "The authorities pointed out that at present, the tax scope of China's resource taxes mainly includes petroleum, coal, natural gas, metal minerals, non-metallic minerals and salt, the scope is too narrow, far from the goal of saving resources and protecting the environment."  The person also believes that it is imperative that water be included in the resource tax levy. On the subject of how to improve the taxation of coal, oil and natural gas, which has already been included in the area of resource tax, the source pointed out that the current thinking of the tax component is to be changed from a measure to a "price" levy.  It was not disclosed as to how much the tax rate might be levied, but it was widely speculated that the adjusted resource tax rate would probably be about 3% per cent. Experts pointed out that the current form of measurement of the problem is increasingly prominent. The amount of the levy can not reflect the rise and fall of resource prices, the state tax will not be with the price of resources increase or decrease. The original intention of levying a resource tax is more difficult to embody, the authoritative personage pointed out, "from the quantity gauge, the enterprise's tax burden is small, it is difficult to form the consciousness of saving resources." "If the price levy is applied, the tax burden on large resource-consuming households will increase greatly."  Industry analyst, in the case of crude oil, it is now implemented from the amount of the levy, the tax rate of 8-30 yuan/ton, but if the price of 80 U.S. dollars/barrels, 3% tax rate, China's crude oil resources tax will be "from the volume of the levy" of about 5 times times. Since this year, the process of promoting the reform of resource tax in our country has obviously accelerated. In late May this year, the NDRC announced the "work on deepening the reform of the economic system in the 2009" and proposed to "study and timing the introduction of a resource tax reform program." Kang, director of Treasury Finance and Science, has also called for a resource tax reform on several occasions, raising the tax burden on resources.
