To ensure that the Guyanese people have more disposable income and that cost of living pressures are cushioned, over the next five years, the Peoples Progressive Party Civic (PPP/C) will maintain its policy of no new taxes throughout all the budgets that it will present during the coming term of office.
The party also committed to lowering taxes generally, including: lower income and corporate taxes, thereby rewarding and incentivising greater effort; and lower taxes on vehicles, while maintaining its policy of allowing importation of vehicles irrespective of age, thereby making vehicle ownership more affordable.
The PPP/C further said it will seek to conclude multi-year agreements with the unions in the public sector, in keeping with the principles of collective bargaining, and continue to grant salary increases and improve benefits to employees.
Additionally, the party said it will provide additional cash grants to households and individuals, and, maintain policies to keep interest rates low, especially for home ownership.
These plans are outlined in the party’s 2025 manifesto which was launched today.
