    "content": "On the Value Added Tax (VAT), this Bill is proposing to move some items from tax exempt to zero-rating. I think this jargon has been used for a long time. I would like to explain the difference between zero-rating and tax exempt. All the items in the country are treated as standard related, namely, the tax rate on VAT is 16 per cent unless otherwise specified. This means that, if indeed, the Government intends to reduce the standard rate of 16 per cent to another one, that particular item will be listed under the First Schedule, which is tax exempt, VAT exempt or under the Second Schedule, which is zero-rate."
