    "content": "The situation that we find ourselves in calls for creativity in tax administration. This is not in terms of not only taxing the same old culprits, but also trying to widen our tax base by finding new people. We need to invest sufficiently in the Kenya Revenue Authority (KRA). As the Departmental Committee on Finance and National Planning, we have a Report on the Floor of this House that speaks to some of the areas that we feel there needs to be investment in KRA, so that we can raise more money. While we were discussing some issues with KRA, we learnt that for every one shilling that we invest there, we can raise Kshs100. Therefore, if we put in an extra one billion, we are likely to raise Kshs100 billion. If we do not invest enough in KRA and some of the facilities that we require, we cannot raise money."
