    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker, for the opportunity. I thank this Committee for bringing this Report. It appears multi- nationals have been doing business here without the Government collecting taxes from them. That is not the right thing to do. Therefore, we support this Report because people were operating outside the regulations, resulting to loss of income and value for money. I agree with Hon. Mbui that we are now being creative as this is a way of collecting revenue. One should not take this as a punitive move but as a way of looking for money outside the box. The foreigners bring in some goods here without paying taxes which again is an issue of tax collection. I take this opportunity to thank the Committee and ask them to cast the net even wider. I support the Motion, Hon. Temporary Speaker."
