    "content": "Hon. Chairlady, what I meant is that when you pass the Budget Estimates, you are in effect giving a provision of collection of taxes order to the Executive. It is a provision of approval by Parliament. So, you cannot say that Parliament has not approved. Just the same way we are today legislating; we have given a provisional order for them to collect. So, they can collect up to the time the Finance Bill is approved. If the Finance Bill is not approved or that provision is not approved then the Government must refund all those taxes. That is how it works. It is not retrospective because Parliament had given an approval. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor."
