Cabinet advises against deal with Pro supported by D66 and CDA

The cabinet advises against a controversial amendment to the Tax Plan supported by D66 and CDA, citing insufficient funding. The proposal from Pro and Volt would impose higher taxes on individuals earning over €60,000 in returns from their assets, aiming to lower the income tax rate. However, the cabinet highlights a €404 million funding shortfall and potential implementation issues for the tax authorities. If the parliament supports the amendment despite the cabinet's advice, the cabinet is not obligated to implement it, risking a vote of no confidence.
