【China AIDS:/】 征收货币交易费用于健康事业全球运动宣言

请广泛传播——抱歉重复

 

    七月,一群健康倡导者聚集在一起讨论征收货币交易费(CTL)用于健康事业的全球运动。这一征费应用于四种主要货币(美元、日元、欧元和英镑),每年可以征收到多达330亿美元,不会扭曲金融市场,而且能够提供额外、可预测和可持续的资金来源。欲获得关于货币交易征费的更多信息,请访问网站www.stampoutpoverty.org

    在本月晚些时候的G20会议预备阶段,我们敦促贵组织签署并支持《征收货币交易费用于健康事业全球运动宣言》(Declaration of the Global Campaign for a Currency Transaction Levy for Health),以便要求我们的政府:a)采取必要的措施来引进这一费用 b)确保将收益用于实现与健康有关的千年发展目标。

    请尽快发送电子邮件到jw@icssupport.org签署宣言,截止日期9月21日星期一

 

征收货币交易费用于健康事业全球运动宣言

 

我们签署人宣布:

    ·我们致力于为实现与健康有关的千年发展目标(MDG)——即在2015年前降低儿童死亡率、改善产妇保健和与主要疾病作斗争(千年发展目标第4、5、6条)——筹集足够的资金。

    ·我们承认,无论是已经分配的还是承诺中的官方发展援助(ODA)资金和国内资金都不足以实现这些目标,这种情况由于全球金融危机而更加恶化,这对世界上最贫穷的国家有着严重的影响。

    ·我们呼吁捐赠国履行其将国家预算的0.7%用于官方发展援助的承诺,我们同样呼吁非洲国家遵守《阿布贾宣言》(Abuja Declaration)中的诺言,将国家预算的至少15%用于健康事业。

    ·我们致力于寻找和利用能够填补资金缺口的额外、新增和可预测的收入来源。

    货币交易征费(CTL)每年能够可持续、可预测和源源不断地从外汇市场获得至少300亿美元的收入,外汇市场至今尚未被征费或征税。

    ·货币交易征费在技术上很容易实施:外汇市场完全是电子化的,税收可以自动进行,无可逃避。

    ·提议的0.005%的低税率对外汇市场不会有不良影响,同时可以产生大量的收入。

        ·货币交易征费只应用于批发外汇市场,不影响零售市场,对移民汇款也没有影响。

        ·货币交易征费的收益应该用于与健康有关的千年发展目标,尤其是关于妇幼保健的第4和第5条,二者严重资金不足,以及普及HIV、结核病和疟疾的预防、治疗、护理和支持。国际社会目前有到位的机制来分配资金和迅速扩大干预措施(例如通过全球疫苗免疫联盟(GAVI Alliance)、全球抗击艾滋病、结核病和疟疾基金及国际药品采购机制(UNITAID))。

    因此我们强烈敦促决策者尽早采取所有必要的措施,对其货币引进货币交易征费,将收入用于实现与健康有关的千年发展目标,重要的是确保用货币交易征费收益补充而不是代替现有的援助承诺。

Subject: ITPC REMINDER: Please sign on to support a Currency Transaction Levy for Health - deadline 21 Sept



Dear all - we have now about 75 sign-ons to the Declaration (see below), thanks all very much for that.
Tomorrow (Monday) is the deadline for sign-ons for the upcoming G20 meeting,
so if you haven't done so already, please sign on a.s.a.p. - thanks!

- PLEASE DISTRIBUTE WIDELY - APOLOGIES FOR CROSS-POSTING -

In July a group of health advocates came together to discuss a global campaign for a Currency Transaction Levy (CTL) for Health. This levy, when applied to the four major currencies (US dollar, Yen, Euro and British Pound) could raise up to $33 billion a year, without distorting the financial markets, and thus providing an additional, predictable and sustainable source for funding. For more information on the CTL, have a look at the website www.stampoutpoverty.org
In the run-up to the G20 later this month we urge you to sign on your organization and support this Declaration of the Global Campaign for a Currency Transaction Levy for Health, to push our governments a) to take the necessary steps to introduce such a levy, and b) make sure the benefits are dedicated to reach the health MDGs.
Please sign on by sending an email a.s.a.p. to jw@icssupport.org deadline is Monday 21 September

Declaration of the Global Campaign

for a Currency Transaction Levy for Health


WE, THE UNDERSIGNED, DECLARE:
    • We are committed to raising sufficient finances to meet the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) for Health, namely to reduce child mortality, improve maternal health and combat the major diseases by 2015 (MDGs 4, 5 & 6). 
    • We acknowledge that neither allocated nor committed levels of Official Development Assistance (ODA) and domestic financing are sufficient to meet these Goals, a situation compounded by the global financial crisis, which is severely affecting the poorest countries in the world.
    • We call upon donors to keep their commitments to allocate 0.7% of their national budgets to ODA and that African countries, similarly, honour their Abuja Declaration pledge to commit at least 15% of their national budgets to health.
    • We are committed to locating and harnessing additional, new and predictable income streams that are capable of meeting funding shortfalls.
    A Currency Transaction Levy (CTL) has the potential to raise revenue of at least $30 billion a year on a sustainable, predictable and on-going basis from the foreign exchange (fx) market, that has not been privy to levies or taxation to date.
  • The CTL is technically simple to implement: the foreign exchange market is fully electronic, revenue collection would be automatic, with no scope for avoidance.
  • At the proposed low rate of 0.005%, the foreign exchange market would not be adversely affected whilst at the same time significant income would be generated.
    • The CTL would be applied to the wholesale foreign exchange market only, and not affect the retail market nor have an impact on migrant remittances.
    • The proceeds of the CTL should benefit the health MDGs, most notably MDGs 4 and 5 on maternal and child health, which are seriously under-resourced, and Universal Access to HIV, TB and malaria prevention, treatment, care and support. The international community currently has the mechanisms in place to channel the funds and rapidly scale up interventions, (e.g., through the GAVI Alliance, the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria and UNITAID).
We therefore strongly urge decision-makers to take all the steps necessary for introduction of a Currency Transaction Levy on their currencies at the earliest possible time with revenue dedicated to meet the MDGs for Health, and importantly ensure CTL proceeds are additional to, and DO NOT replace, existing aid commitments.
