    "content": "Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, I beg to move:- THAT, Clause 8 of the Bill be amended in subclause (1) by deleting the word “twenty-five “and substituting therefor the word “ten”. Clause 8 gives the Cabinet Secretary (CS) power to vary the rate of the Excise Duty by 25 per cent, but subject to him bringing it to Parliament. My Committee felt that is too huge a variation to be made by an individual. Therefore, we decided to narrow it down to 10 per cent, so that we do not have an individual having powers to amend the rates. For example, 25 per cent of Kshs120 is like Kshs30."
