Irrelevant, money always stays in, or transits through banks. Governments are bank customers like everybody else, and all money movements are taxed by the banks (except they call it "fees", not "taxes"). Anyway.
In this case, as others already highlighted, it's all about supporting the banks' investments in office space: Threatening people with a "home worker tax" will push them back to corporate offices the banks can rent out for good money. In clear, "Either you force your company to give us their money, or we will take it directly from you".
