    "content": "to wait for the courts to decide. You must have a Finance Bill. Before then, you cannot appropriate what you are doing here. So, maybe it is because we now have a new Chair who is alive to some of these constitutional things and I think, we will have better times in this Chamber. What I only want to ask the Chair to desist from is this: do not bring legislations under the Statute Law (Miscellaneous Amendments) to the Finance Act. Go to the Acts themselves. Look at them properly, and make those amendments in their respective pieces of legislations. That way, you are unlikely to get this kind of criticisms from T.J. Kajwang’ and company. However, I want to support the Finance Bill for as long as there will be no unga price increment, VAT on LPG gas and for as long as my father who is a retired teacher, will not be taxed just because he is enjoying himself in retirement. I will stand for him and all those retirees who have to enjoy the little things they have in life before the Lord calls them home. Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker."
