"content": "Hon. Speaker, there is an issue under Clause 51. I am saying this because the Chairman is listening to me and the Committee is also here. The area of tax amnesty is something we should delete from our laws completely. There is a time I visited a commissioner in charge of taxation. While sitting on his desk, there was a person who was supposed to pay the country tax of over Ksh10 billion. However, the Cabinet Secretary just wrote that he would pay Ksh200 million, but not Ksh2 million. We lost all that money. We need to stop amnesty. As Members of this Committee present the Finance Bill, we should question why we allow amnesty. Why are we allowing it up to 31st December 2022? Whom do we want to give amnesty to, before we enforce the law rightly? It has been happening."
