    "content": "Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady. I agree with Hon. Ichungw’ah. At one time, the policy was that agencies were withholding 16 per cent. Where I worked, they never used to remit that. It caused a lot of problems thereafter. The Government was unable to--- Secondly, when it came to the Government to make some refund to the people who had exceeded the amount when they were making their VAT returns, again it was a problem. So, I agree with Hon. Ichungw’ah that we oppose this amendment. We should not allow agencies to withhold VAT; let the person who is in charge make their returns and they can settle that with the Government instead of withholding it. Most of the agencies, especially the counties, will never send that money to KRA. I oppose."
