    "content": "The purpose of this amendment, if you recall what I said in Clause 18, is that given that two items under 105 and 106 have been reinstated to Clause 18, we are only deleting just to make it more appropriate. We are also making it clearer in the Bill and the Act. Additionally, we are also introducing agricultural pest control products which are meant to support farmers especially now that we are focusing on the Big Four Agenda on food security. We are bringing products under zero-rating to make them cheaper. Currently, they are under standard rates. The Bill had taken them to tax-exempt. Exemption is traditionally expensive because the suppliers will not be able to claim. Therefore, they will move that cost to the farmer. We are taking it to the right place, which is zero-rating."
