"content": "What KRA is requesting is that for them to enhance and optimise our revenue collection, let us add them more resources. This is something we must support, as Members, to give capacity to KRA to enable them collect more resources and close loopholes where there is pilferage of funds or traders trying to avoid tax. Ones we close the loopholes, we will have a chance to collect more resources. People argue about growing the national cake and that we should focus growing our revenue, but first we should put the systems in place to protect and preserve the little we have then when we get the plenty, we will be in a better position to preserve and protect it. As much as we have the little, and we talk of growing the national cake, first let us preserve and protect the cake we have. This conversation is timely and I support the Committee’s Report that we must empower and capacity build KRA to give us more resources as a nation."
