A progressive tax system is key to tackling economic inequality, closing the gender gap and raising more revenue for public services. The government has made great strides in integrating gender analysis into the budget process, enshrining it in legislation and improving the evidence base for policy-making. However, the government cannot deliver on its feminist agenda without adequate financial resourcing. More investments will require more resources, which is why effective and gender-equal taxation policy must be a priority in order for the government to deliver on the its ambitious agenda.
