I stand to support the Committee’s proposed amendments, especially on the taxation on fishing nets. I come from a fishing community. The other day the Government changed the fishing gear. People are grappling with acquiring the new fishing gear. Therefore, introducing taxation was going to be a killer blow. Do not punish us for Corona virus, we did not bring it to the country. Thank you."}
