Institutional Restructuring
• Disbanding the supervisory board
• Reducing the number of directors
• Simplifying managers’ appointment process
• Improving monitoring from supervisory ministries
Expanded Mandate
• Increasing revenue
• Simplifying tax management
• Generating economies of scale

This reform will modernise the OTR, improve revenue collection and also improve the efficiency of tax administration.
