    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir. I rise to support the amendment proposed by the Finance, Planning and Trade Committee. It would be interesting if the hon. Member, Mr. Muiruri, declared his interest. This House cannot be dragged into any other issues apart from taxation issues. This is a local industry which employs Kenyans. We cannot increase tax on it while we support a multinational company. Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, my opposition to this amendment is occasioned by the fact that there are hon. Members in this House who are distributors for East African Breweries Ltd., who are fighting their own wars. In fact, the hon. Member who has just spoken is a brewer."
