Uganda has missed out on Ush600 billion ($160.77 million) in uncollected tax from the export of gold products since July 2021 owing to a dispute with exporters and refiners over levies, a report by the country’s Parliamentary Committee on Finance, Planning and Economic Development.
But Uganda’s Minister for Energy and Mineral Development Ruth Nankabirwa while responding to the report told the house on Tuesday blamed the loss on a dispute between Uganda Revenue Authority and more than 20 gold exporters and refiners.
