No luxury. Ministers Murati hands over 7,500 signatures for the removal of a tax on menstrual products

Organization “QICA” has held an action today before the Kosovo Government object, which has been requested by Finance Minister Hekuran Murati, the removal of the Menstrual License tax.

There has been submitted petition with seven thousand and 500 signatures 18 percent tax loss.

Representative Medina Dauti said the economic consequences are affecting women, especially those from poor families.

“Minister, sign! Today, the Minister of Iron Murati brought 7,500 petition signatures to “Peceta is not luxury” to remind us of the will of Kosovo citizens who last year have demanded the removal of 18% tax on menstrual products. Symbolically, we also brought the decision that Murati would have to have the courage and the will to design it. The taxation of menstrual products is sexist. The state is meeting the normal psychological function of women and all those who manage. Menstruations are no choice, nor is menstrual hygiene a luxury, and such as these cannot be taxed. ” She said, “EO”

She has stressed that Murati has not said a word on the matter until he again asked her to sign the decision.

“Minister, you cannot remain indifferent and not talk about menstrual poverty. She exists. QICA believes that the tax that deepens existing gender inequalities was unconstitutional and unconstitutional, so it must leave immediately. Political reasoning, legal base, pencil, all right here. Minister, take the liberty and sign the decision. ) David said.
