Clause 6 deals with zero-rating of items for purposes for VAT. As earlier explained, when we deliberated, we realised that the manufacturers of human medicine and veterinary medicine are almost closing because of the issue of VAT. We decided to give them a zero-rating status so that we make these drugs cheaper for Kenyans and to sustain the companies to continue employing Kenyans. So, majority of the amendments there are about human medicine and veterinary medicine. This, again, was after consultation with the national Treasury. Basically, that is what we have there. It is about zero-rating human medicine."
