    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for giving me this opportunity to contribute to this Bill. At the outset, I wish to support the proposed Tax Laws (Amendment) (No.2) Bill. Firstly, we have to remember that, at the beginning of this year, the world was visited by the Coronavirus pandemic. When the first case was declared in our country in March 2020, this House, in its wisdom, passed certain amendments to the tax laws that gave relief to many Kenyans. As Hon. Ichung’wah has alluded to, there were varied opinions at that point in time. There were people who said that we did not need those amendments. It was better we collect that money and use it for targeted interventions. I was in this House then."
