For example, in Nandi, we need many tarmac roads and in many other areas. Nonetheless, KRA must be on high alert to allow the companies to pay taxes in terms of transactions that we are talking about. I want to challenge the Committee on Trade, Industrialisation and Tourism to come up with these regulations and ensure that there is compliance through the capital markets, public offers, listing and disclosures. The companies must disclose. Therefore, EABL cannot run away from this trading. They must be held accountable. They must pay taxes and tell Kenyans what EABL is doing because it is a public company. The Government has shares and the public must be aware of its runnings. Madam Temporary Speaker, within these six months, they should ensure that there are measures to be taken. Therefore, I challenge the Capital Markets Authority to take charge and the Competition Authority of Kenya should ensure that there is fair competition and fair market practises within this sector and any other companies which might want to do trading in the country. It is a pleasure to second this Motion that came through the Petition by Mr. Nicholas Rono. I want to thank the membership of the Committee; the old and the new membership. I saw the former Chair and I would want to hear his thoughts because, largely, most of this work was done by the previous Committee on Trade and Industrialisation. With all those many remarks - I do not want to say in the tradition of Kenya, few remarks - I beg to second."
