    "content": "taxes form a major part of our fiscal measures and the Bill endeavours to improve the fiscal system in tax collection. Hon. Speaker, my other observation in this particular regard is that, sound fiscal measures are major integral ways of developing an economy. Any country must actually base their long term fiscal measures and tax collection in their development aspirations. Finally, the Bills intends to bring integrity because what happens is that many people fear paying taxes because it takes a longer time to get a refund or to be listened to. Therefore, there is rampant tax evasion. But with the establishment of this one stop tribunal, people will be encouraged because the administrative competence of the tax collector is actually enhanced. All the foregoing factors will enhance our fiscal measures and promote our economic development. With those few remarks, I want to say that this is a timely Bill which will enable us set up a Tax Appeals Tribunal."
