"content": " Thank you. New Clause 42C talks about the Defence Forces Welfare Services. There is an issue even though we supported the earlier amendment. There are things we used to call the Kenya Armed Forces Old Comrades Association (KAFOCA) out there. They are not exclusive. You have to go through some vetting for you to access them when they are in the barracks. Anybody can access them when they are out there. I am wondering whether we will not be causing market imbalances. Imagine you own a restaurant in a town and you have one in your town. Then, the military persons enjoy these tax benefits. It means their prices are going to be cheaper and all that. Even though we are supporting, we need to be a bit cautious to ensure that we do not cause market imperfections and end up killing some business in the locality."
