Temporary Deputy Speaker, I stand to support the Finance Bill and I want to say that it is the first time in my history in Parliament that I have seen a very lean Finance Bill. It is no wonder the House is empty! Finance Bills are always the most controversial Bills. The Minister usually opens a number of taxation fronts and that gives other people a chance to ride on those fronts. However, I want to thank the current Cabinet Secretary, hon. Rotich, for bringing a very lean Finance Bill; a Bill that has only considered important areas."}
