A house RESOLUTION

 

To honor Ms. Jeanette Chanda Makgolo, Commissioner General of Botswana Unified Revenue Service, for her service and dedication to Botswana's public sector and to recognize her contributions in implementing measures to enhance her country's fiscal sustainability and efficiency in providing related services.

 

Whereas, the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives are pleased to recognize the Commissioner General of Botswana Unified Revenue Service, Ms. Jeanette Chanda Makgolo, for her continued efforts to ensure that Botswana's future is one with fiscal success; and

 

Whereas, with over thirty years of experience, Ms. Makgolo has served in various capacities within the public sector, notably contributing to the development and enactment of key legislation in Botswana such as the Public Procurement Bill and the Financial Reporting Act. She also holds positions on multiple boards, including the Botswana Unified Revenue Service (BURS) Board, the African Tax Administration Forum, and the Botswana Accountancy Oversight Authority, among others; and

 

Whereas, Ms. Makgolo joined the BURS at a critical time when the fiscal position of the country had deteriorated, and new measures were required to transform the revenue service into a modern revenue authority capable of increasing the collection of domestic revenues. Within the short period she has been with the BURS, Ms. Makgolo chartered the Revenue Service Transformation Roadmap which has begun to gain traction. The BURS has seen an upward growth trajectory in revenue collections owing to her chartered transformation strategy which both recognizes new age issues and successfully executes initiatives geared towards improving revenue collection and service delivery; and

 

Whereas, the South Carolina House of Representatives is greatly appreciative of Ms. Jeanette Chanda Makgolo's work and the members recognize the substantial impact she has had on Botswana's fiscal position. Now, therefore,

 

Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:

 

That the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives, by this resolution, honor Ms. Jeanette Chanda Makgolo, Commissioner General of Botswana Unified Revenue Service, for her service and dedication to Botswana's public sector and for her contributions in implementing measures to enhance her country's fiscal sustainability and efficiency in providing related services.

 

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to Ms. Jeanette Chanda Makgolo.
