PETALING JAYA: The Finance Ministry will ensure that there is no repeat of what happened with the GST refunds during the Baraisan Nasional government's tenure, says Finance Minister Lim Guan Eng.

Lim said that government will respect the two principal recommendations in the Public Accounts Committee report to ensure that the legal contraventions and financial non-compliance – where monies meant for GST refunds were used for other government expenditures – will never happen again.

He was commenting on the findings of PAC that GST collections under the Barisan administration were not deposited directly into the Fund for GST Refunds, and this had caused delays in GST refund payments for more than a year. In early August 2018 when I first tabled in Parliament that there was RM19.4bil worth of GST refunds left unpaid as of May 31 2018, taxpayers in Malaysia were GST Refunds to facilitate payment for GST refunds.

Unfortunately, the GST collections were not deposited directly into the Fund for GST Refunds, and this had caused delays in GST refund payments for more than a year.

GST refunds: Najib claims followed the law, PAC finds no proofPAC REPORT | Both Najib and Irwan Serigar said that the GST Act was adhered to. PAC did not state any GST law to support its statement. I guess since ex-PM's era came, so as the lies . guess one day they will say sun rises from the west.
