The government is consulting on four bills that would move ThaiHealth, Thai PBS, the Elderly Fund and the National Sports Development Fund into the annual budget, with spending plans subject to scrutiny. The proposal would end ThaiHealth's extra 2% levy on alcohol and tobacco, which critics say would lower producers' costs. Excise taxes themselves are not being abolished. Still in consultation, so no change is in force. Alcohol and tobacco businesses should watch the final bill; other SMEs should note the possible change to how these funds are financed.
