pascale - change. it certainly is. pascale pascal lamy, thank you very much.n bbc news: chancellor rishi sunak has said g7 finance ministers from the world's leading economies have reached a historic deal to reform the global tax system during talks in london. testing is ramped up as the uk sees the highest number of new covid infections in two months. covid restrictions have eased across much of scotland, with people in glasgow allowed to socialise indoors and drink alcohol in pubs and restaurants for the first time in nine months. a0 million people in the uk have now received at least one dose of a coronavirus vaccine, equivalent to 76.2% of the adult population. the milestone comes as the head of nhs providers, which represents health services, said covid vaccines appear to have broken the chain between catching the virus and becoming seriously ill or dying. despite this, chris hopson says any decision on easing restrictions in england on 21stjune is finely balanced. 0ur health correspondent naomi grimley reports. it is the big question of the summer. can h

the former director—general of the world trade organisation — pascal lamy — who's currently president— gave us his view on the deal. i take it as a very important agreement. not that every detail is sorted out. there will be a lot of decisions to be made but it is in my view extremely important, for two reasons. one, because multinational companies won't be able any more avoid paying taxes, and this is a step forward in global governance at a time when, as we know, multilateral global governance is not in good shape, so it is a good signal in this respect, and second because it is also the end of a sort of reagan— thatcher to do according to which government was too big and the good way was to encourage competition. this is the end of that era. whatever new political paradigms there will be in country x or y, the general view is that big multinational companies making the sort of profit they make, and notably in the digital sector, without paying taxes, it is something which has become intolerable, and i think what we have been through with this covid crisis and the sort of problems w

pascal's oreo turned around astrid -- pascal turned around astra, but nevertheless, does this go farh? emily just reiterated what the view is, but maybe this doesn't go far enough, which make you wonder what has to come next. alix: she said, i'm a change agent, a business leader, and i am very excited about the new plan. but it doesn't feel like enough of a change to really get you that jazzed about it. there's just not enough, and in this day and age, you need a lot more, particularly when you are not involved in any of the covid vaccines, etc. guy: the option of closing down and selling to somebody else is not there, then where does the catalyst come from? where does the management push come from if this is what we've got at the moment? that is what i think the focus is so heavily on her. if you can't have a foreign company come in and buying it, maybe get astra to come in and buy it. i don't know. alix: or you spend a lot of money on r&d to get your pipeline, but that is not going to help you short-term. you've got to invest it in order to get something good enough to make a catal

when the bladder approved his press. secretary dmitri pascal was asked about what the kremlin makes of the new spikes and the measures. here's what the spokesperson replied. don't get even worse name. he tuition is due to 3 things, the absolute nihilism. that is people failure to comply with restrictions. so low vaccination rate and the slide nature of the virus. in the meantime, the existing anti cove measures in the russian capital have been extended till the end of june name leave the closure of bars, restaurants and clubs during the night. and also a 3rd of staff members being required to work from home. in addition to that, the moscow mayor's office has also bad mass gatherings of over 1000 people. besides this dance floors and football fans, those will also have to be shut down for now. once again, i'd like to point out that so far, these are the measures that have been announced for the washing capital. this isn't on a federal level just yet, but we have received a warning from the authorities that all of this could be extended to other regions of russia if that is required. so

former director—general of the world trade organisation, and president of the paris peace forum, pascalgave me his reaction well, i think it is an important agreement for different reasons. the first one is that it is a major progress, step forward in global governance that will make it harderfor multinational companies to avoid paying taxes. and the second reason, which in my view is just as important, is that it is a major ideological paradigm shift by the g7 countries which puts an end to the reagan—thatcher era, where at times the mantra for tax competition being a good thing in order to shrink government. this year is over, as we have just heard on your programme. it is a first step, there will be many others in order to ensure more fairness, but i believe it is a really big, promising change. how do you encourage more countries beyond the g7 to sign up to it, particularly smaller countries who, once committed, won't be able to alter their own tax rates independently? well, to the first part of your question, i think the g20 will follow. i do not see come the g20, a country that wo

pascal, for the purposes of an opening statement. >> thank you, chairman thompson. i am are pleased to be holding this joint hearing on the pervasive tax gap and improving tax administration to address it. the tax gap, or the measurement of the difference between what taxpayers owe and what they actually pay has become hugely significant. this gap matters immensely as we come to terms with a tax code that fosters one system for the wealthy and another system for average americans. the disclosure this week that some of the wealthiest americans pay barely any tax was shocking but also not surprising. the revelations should give us greater urgency to address fairness in our tax laws that's what i'm looking for. i don't know what you're looking for. i don't know what other people are talking that when you talk about harassment but when they talk about, this is a voluntary system. we know is a voluntary system. we certainly can't look back at 2017 and say that was the beginning of tax reform. that would be comical. i'm looking forward to the testament of our witnesses, s
