(Ignore errors of punctuation, if any). The new tax policy aims to boost foreign investments; moreover, it proposes to increase corporate taxes in certain sectors, which may deter industrial growth.Solution
Explanation: The use of "moreover" is incorrect in this context. "Moreover" is used to add information that supports or strengthens a statement. However, the proposal to increase corporate taxes contradicts the aim to boost foreign investments, so "however" or "on the other hand" would be more appropriate here. The corrected sentence is: "The new tax policy aims to boost foreign investments; however, it proposes to increase corporate taxes in certain sectors, which may deter industrial growth."
