    "content": " As the Chairman of the Departmental Committee on Finance and National Planning rises to speak, he needs to clarify to us if the Cabinet Secretary of the National Treasury was involved in this. I listened and I largely agree with Hon (Dr.) Makali Mulu and Hon. (Dr.) Wilberforce Oundo that tax administration has been facing a challenge because of these exemptions. But at the same time, we have to be careful because the moment you subject glass to taxation, if you do not take care of issues around pharmaceutical packaging of drugs using glass, definitely it will have cost effects on our pharmaceutical products. We need the clarification on whether the National Treasury is clear that they will manage this properly because tax administration becomes a problem when it comes to these exemptions."
