Bokros critical of gov't policy
Former Finance Minister Lajos Bokros, known for his reform plan the ?Bokros Deal' severely criticized the current government's economic and fiscal policy in an interview to Figyelőnet. Bokros claims that the planned tax reform will be useless without a reform of the public sector and thinks that black economy should be countered by cutting personal income tax rates and by initiating new taxes like real estate tax. Bokros also criticized both the Hungarian National Bank and the government because of concentrating on the Forint rate rather than on its stability. (Vg 5) R.G.
