    "content": "On the amendment by hon. John Mbadi, Member for Suba on New Clause 21(a), my Committee declined this amendment on the basis that the amendment to Pay As You Earn (PAYE) tax structure would negatively affect income tax collections. Indeed, the amendments by our hon. colleague do very validly contravene the basic tax principles of equity and non-discrimination and will deny massive revenues to the Exchequer. It is, therefore, the case that the Committee has declined but we are warm to the idea of spending more time and more consultations, particularly with stakeholders on this particular idea in due course."
