There were suggestions to increase income resources by raising taxes on export of coal, iron ore and oil and instructed the working group of the bill to study these proposals. Another possible version to increase income through tax was rise of tax on lorries weighing over 42 tones which cause significant damages to soil and vegetation. These types of lorries are subject to higher tax according to an international convention while no special regulation in Mongolia, the tax is over 100.000 togrog on heavy lorries, the same as on small trucks. They said the tax should be changed as heavy lorries make damage to roads of the capital and aimags as well.
