"content": "Having said that, the Council of Governors (CoG) led by the Governor of Laikipia asked us to look into how they can get some of the levies, like the Catering Levy. All the hotels, eateries and bars are in the counties, so one wonders why the national Government continues to collect the Levy. We promised them we will have a meeting and look at how we can help them. They also requested us, in terms of own-source revenue, on what we can do to help them enforce payment by the big brother. The biggest defaulter of Property Tax is the national Government. They were asking us, as a Senate, to think and come up with ways to help them deal with defaulters. They have a problem because a county like Laikipia could be owed money by the armed forces, but they are unable to collect the outstanding water bills."
