    "content": "Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. At the outset, I support this Bill because there is no country that can develop without taxes. So, it is important to impose taxes on exports and imports. We should utilise well the taxes that we collect from our people. We should monitor and ensure that the taxes are used well. I will propose an amendment on the taxes levied to hides and skins during the Committee of the whole House because, I believe, they are high. We should reduce it to less than 8 per cent. Some of us went to school because of hides and skins. Our parents used them to get money and I know the value of hides and skins. That taxes levied on iron is low. We should increase them. With those few remarks, I support."
