Kajwang’, this Bill is not called COVID-19 in the first place. This Bill is called Tax Laws (Amendment) Bill. Apart from the issues of COVID-19, if there are any other pending issues, even concerning the people of Ruaraka, we will not wait for COVID-19 to go away. So, there are other issues. Our business is to legislate. And this Bill is not called COVID- 19. This Bill is called Tax Laws (Amendment) Bill. The Finance Bill will come next week and you will find other issues related to COVID-19 in it. So, can we proceed?"}
