"content": " Thank you Hon. Chairlady. This issue regarding landlords is very emotive. There has been a lot of misinformation and disinformation which has been deliberate so we vilify this Bill. I feel the sentiments of the people out there that they are being coerced to appoint agents. This is not the point of the committee but if you choose to have an agent collect rent on your behalf, they should remit tax at that point. We cannot force agents to belong to a certain body. As it is now, there is a desired position for them to be members of a certain body. The fact on the ground is there is no group or body that embodies them together. So, it would be in very bad faith to institute such amendments in this Bill. This is because we would be sinking them to a situation where they will lose their jobs. I support we go with the amendments as proposed by the Chairperson of the Committee. Thank you, Hon. Chairlady."
