The question to the Palriament was posed by To Potami MP, Giorgos Amyras, who was asking information about the audits on large-scale tax evaders, those named on Lagarde List and the Borjans List as well as the issue of “limitation statute” for case investigation for the time period 2006-2011.
The GSPR said that the audit on cases under limitation statute completed on 31. Dec. 2017 and that audits in other cases continues.
