    "content": "continue to use. Any investor who is planning to go to any country, the first thing that they look at is the tax policy of that country and if it is not favourable to their businesses they will not even consider investing there. I want to thank the Committee because they sat and looked at the factors that we will consider making it attractive for most of the businesses to come to this country. As we move forward as a nation, we will make sure our taxes are favourable to the businesses and individuals and also that we are increasing the tax base to make sure that everybody is paying their fair share. There is also a huge population and businesses that are evading taxes in this country. As such the policy has addressed those matters and the issues as to what can be done to make sure the individuals who are evading taxes pay including arresting them. There are so many activities and suggestions from this Committee and I support. If we are going to enact this new tax policy, Kenya is going to increase its revenue and it is going to be fair and transparent for most businesses. This is going to attract many investors in this country"
