    "content": "Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, just a few weeks ago, the Tanzanian Government decided that it was going to increase the resident permit cost for foreigners, Kenya included. This was just a few weeks ago. For you to go and conduct business in Tanzania, it is becoming horrendous. As we speak, and this is something I actually confirmed before coming to this House, there is no corresponding domestication of the protocol to permit Kenyans to invest in banks and insurance companies in Tanzania. My very good friend and collegemate, hon. Kajuju is completely misinformed. Her Committee needs to do its job by making sure that we get corresponding favors and domestication of laws by Tanzania. Let us get our sister state to give us corresponding openings and opportunities for us to open up our market. I am happy that Uganda and Burundi and even Rwanda are doing it. The Commissioner for Insurance and his team need to be very careful. It is not that the insurance companies are not doing very well, but looking at the amount of money that they are charging especially on motor vehicle insurance, I do not think they are justified. Since we have given that office a lot of power, we need to make sure that Kenyans are being served and not fleeced. I support, but subject to those provisos and riders.
