    "content": "charcoal. How then do we, on one hand, tell Kenyans to not use charcoal and firewood and then go on and impose a very high tax on LPG gas? We are here to legislate. We know that the process of budget-making belongs to Parliament, but we are not here to punish our people. It is about time that this House came to the realisation that we are empowered as Parliament to constitutionally approve the tax variations that are being proposed. I believe that with a good and robust debate, we shall be able to attend to those matters."
