The National Assembly has directed the provision of Certified True Copies of the Tax Reform Acts to stakeholders and members of the public upon request.
According to a statement issued on Friday in Abuja by the Director of Information for the Senate, Bullah Audu Bi-Allah, the Assembly has also initiated an investigation into allegations that certain provisions of the tax laws were altered after approval by lawmakers and presidential assent.
The tax laws are: Nigeria Tax Act, 2025; Nigeria Tax Administration Act, 2025; Joint Revenue Board of Nigeria (Establishment) Act, 2025; and Nigeria Revenue Service (Establishment) Act, 2025.
According to the statement, concerns had been raised publicly over the harmonisation of the bills passed by both chambers of the National Assembly, the assent granted by the President, and the versions of the Acts subsequently published in the Official Gazette.
The Leadership and management of the National Assembly are addressing these matters strictly within their constitutional and statutory mandate,” the statement said.
It added that the relevant committees of the National Assembly, working with its management, had commenced an internal review to clarify the issues raised.
“Accordingly, the relevant Committees, in collaboration with the Management of the National Assembly, are conducting an internal review,” it stated.
