"content": "The Finance Bill is important because it gives the Government ability, force and mandate to support development and run its business. This is done by this House because we are mandated by Article 114 of the Constitution to impose or vary the different rates and taxes that individuals and institutions pay. Many Members have spoken to revenue generation by the Government. It can get money from international trade, which it is not doing. International trade is not only importation but exportation, so that we can earn foreign exchange and make money through taxes. Strengthening the shilling is another one way, but I want to dwell a lot more on corporate and individual taxes. This is the main source of income for this country. Therefore, The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor."
