    "content": "company as any company which has a turnover of less than Kshs5 million, in their wisdom, then it is only fair that we expand the same idea so that we do not contravene what the law in KRA provides for. Therefore, we will be advancing and supporting the small businessman who is actually the reason we are here today. That way, we will be able to get more income in terms of taxes from the many people who are going to do businesses. When you talk of the Kshs50 million threshold which my colleague was taking about, I also find it difficult to comprehend that we want to put our threshold at that level because then, we are going to hurt the same people that we are meant to make laws to protect. My proposal is we adopt what Hon. Nassir had recommended because it takes care of the small man as opposed to the developed industries in the market, which can wriggle around and get their way and do the right thing because of their strength. I think that will be in the best interest of this country. Thank you."
