    "content": "I like the cue made by Hon. Mutuse. I urge the national Treasury and the Ministry of Industry, Trade and Investments to gazette regulations on the dates by which parts will be manufactured locally. It is possible. When this House passed the law exempting imported motorcycle parts from excise duty, regulations followed. Dates were set by which parts would have to be manufactured locally. I urge the national Treasury to collaborate with the Ministry of Investments, Trade and Industry, which our very good Cabinet Secretary and former Governor for Nakuru, Hon. Lee Kinyanjui, leads. They ought to gazette regulations with specifications even on imported parts that will start to be manufactured locally. I got reports from many of you asking about the Finance Bill 2025. Seeing that we are back to where we were last year is disheartening. I see people’s analyses of the Finance Bill 2025 on social media, and I wonder because the Bill has not had a chance to be in this House. It has not even been tabled. It must be somewhere in the drafting of the Budget Office under the national Treasury. It is really sad that people are starting to debate. Painfully, I say they are deliberately misinforming and disinforming this country. Let us be patient and see the proposals the national Treasury will come up with. As I said, this House is committed to ensuring that the views of the public are heard: it is not just for the sake of it, but to matter in the decision that the people's representatives will pass in this House. With those many remarks, I beg to reply."
