"The advent of online shopping and the number of agencies which are now offering services to connect Trinidad citizens to overseas internet shopping is obviously having a very traumatic effect on local retail sales, particularly because the entire business of internet shopping is so unregulated and so open at the moment.
"As you know in the US at this time they are attempting to impose sales tax on internet shopping in an effort to achieve the same objective that the minister is speaking about, which is to level the playing field, and we would be very interested in seeing what the minister has in mind with respect to his examination of this issue."
Aboud said many local companies offered tremendous access to citizens to shop overseas but local retail stores were unable to compete in that environment because a lot of those products that are coming into the country via the online services are not attracting the type of duty and VAT that local importers have to pay.
