Manolescu said the IMF expert team and ANAF will look at ways to reorganize the tax authority’s division in charge of large taxpayers, unrelated to the restructuring of the institution under a World Bank program.

Sources told MEDIAFAX earlier the IMF will meet with ANAF officials for talks on recovering the debts of state-owned companies.

The tax authority announced Tuesday it had blocked the bank accounts of the public television network TVR and the Bucharest public transport company RATB, adding similar measures will follow for large taxpayers with overdue debts.
