Presents in-depth analysis of US Internal Revenue Service (IRS) tech assistance to Govt of Peru (GOP) under Tax Admin component of USAID's Govt Finance & Admin Proj as of 1/31/69. Initiated in 1963 with IRS survey, proj has sought to increase central govt revenues while simultaneously beginning to distribute tax burden more equitably. Progress reported to be satisfactory but behind schedule due to incomplete results, discontinuities in the level of GOP response & commitment, and IRS/USAID admin difficulties. Notable results have been achieved in the establishment & growth of Intelligence Service (enforcement) & Public Info operations. IRS Intelligence Advisor withdrawn in 1968 with no adverse effect on subsequent operations; the public info unit effectively used communications media to promote proj accomplishments & to educate the public as to its tax-paying obligations during time of tax reform implementation. USAID Mission estimates that tax admin improvements accounted for 1 billion soles or 17% of the l50% increase in tax revenues from 1963-1968, a sum that is respectable but not of major import given GNP & price increases and the levying of new taxes.
