    "content": "When any vehicle which, for example, is branded for advertisements belonging to Unilever or any other company moves from Mombasa to Busia, it will be stopped so many times at the borders of every county, hence the owner of that business ends up making so many payments such that the whole exercise or whatever business that particular person is doing is in futility. These are the people who should be protected. Within the law, we should have a certain way or standard so that if you have been charged in Mombasa County, then the other counties, because you are using a Kenyan highway, should not become beneficiaries of this particular venture. Anybody who tries to advertise any business which is supposed to be licensed yet the license fee has not been paid, cannot be allowed to operate even for one minute in any of the counties in Kenya. The tax officers will make sure that that particular business complies or it is shut down and its goods confiscated. It is not only that, but even all the people who do businesses everywhere including the hawkers cannot move around. There are enough revenue collectors of the counties to pounce on them and make sure that they are licensed. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor."
