We ask you to stop levying taxes on Materials imported to aid sufferers of the Nepalese earthquakes. The cost of these taxes will slow down aid for people who need it urgently, and with the monsoon rapidly approaching help is needed now.

The Issue

We need your voice now in order to bring an end to import duties which are stopping relief supplies reaching the people of Nepal.  The monsoon is about to arrive and when it does the job of relief will be much more difficult and at the same time more needed.  Thousands have already died.  We cannot let a bureaucratic tax system stand in the way of saving lives.  Your voice can help to make sure that this does not happen.
