    "content": "Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, pursuant to Standing Order No.45(2)(b), I rise to seek a Statement from the Chairperson of the Standing Committee on Labour and Social Welfare regarding the collection of levies from businesses such as bars, kiosks, barber shops and public transport operators for playing music. In the Statement, the Chairperson should state:- (1) The role of the Music Copyright Society of Kenya (MCSK) as well as the Kenya Association of Music Producers and Performers Rights Society of Kenya (KAMPPRISK) with regard to collection of performance levies. (2) Who is entitled to collect the levies collected by the two bodies? (3) How much the owners of such businesses are required to pay for playing music in their premises? (4) Why the MCSK and the KAMPPRISK officials are always accompanied by uniformed police officers when collecting levies from the said businesses. (5) The steps being taken by the Communications Authority of Kenya (CAK) to set up regulations for remitting such levies by business owners who own radios and television sets for public entertainment in their premises. Thank you."
