    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. Last year’s Finance Bill, having received the kind of reception it got, was courtesy of partly what the workers indicated as a drain in their pay slips in terms of several tax deductions. But I am happy for them since there is some tax relief this time. The mortgage clause that increases and expands tax-free mortgages not only for commercial property but also homes, is an advantage to workers. The clause that indicates that multinationals that invest in Kenya must have a certain per centum of Kenyan workers reminds me of the Africanisation policy of 1965, which is great for workers. The expansion of tax-free per diem from Ksh2,000 to Ksh10,000 is an advantage to workers. The proposal on pension and gratuity has been emphasised and I thank the Committee for it."
