That is because the provisional order to tax based on the new rates lapsed on 31st December, 2011. The Minister had proposed a number of taxes including on cigarettes and Withholding Tax moving from 5 per cent to 10 per cent. Could the Minister tell us what the Government is doing now? Are you collecting at the new rates, in which case then you are taxing Kenyans illegally or you are taxing at the old rates?"
