THE FISCAL ANTI-FRAUD CONTROL. LEGAL REGIME
Abstract
The fiscal anti-fraud control has been regulated quite recently, by the Government Emergency Ordinance No. 74/2013, adopted in the context of the implementation of the “Project for the modernization of the fiscal administration” and the intensification of the fight against tax evasion. On the basis of the legal norms applying to it, of specialized doctrine and legal literature, the present work aims to approach fiscal control from various perspectives – organization, enforcement and definition of legal accountability – so as to point at the same time its specific forms, in relation to other similar control forms. Moreover, the present work will also analyse the novelty elements which the law brings, so as to create a specific technical support for the authorities, regarding those case laws having as object the economic-financial frauds. The current study aims to delineate the legal regime of this control form, which we consider a specialized activity, organized within the National Agency of Fiscal Administration and performed with the specific target of control, so as to prevent, acknowledge and fight tax evasion. At the same time, the present study is useful under the present circumstances, in which fiscal fraud has become more intense, becoming a phenomenon, but also because fiscal fraud has incidence upon other field of economic and financial interest.
