Constitutions and the Criminal Code will stipulate whether and how a criminal provision will apply retroactively. The retroactive effect of a provision relating to a criminal offense under tax law will follow the same logic. However, the provision related to tax collection, whether it be the duties and responsibilities of paying taxes, tax allowances including surcharges are the policy of the state at that time for the need of the budget for the countryûs administration, particularly. As a result, the retroactive effect of the provision related to tax collection has more factors to take into account than the criminal law.
