    "content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, no vehicle has been given tax-free exemption. I said that there are Kenyans who for one reason or another imported vehicles claiming not to have known the eight year rule. Others find that by the time they clear and pay duty, they have exceeded the eight year rule. For example, even these returning citizens are people who brought cars manufactured in 2002 but by the time they register such vehicles, they have exceeded by a few months or one year. In that particular case, we have allowed them to register because the Government has already collected duty. I would like to repeat that duty is collected before registration. You cannot register a vehicle before duty is collected. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, there is no other category of people who have been given exemption except returning residents and those Kenyans who would have incurred losses after paying duty."
