Omboko Milemba","speaker":null,"content":" Thank you, Hon. Temporary Chairman. I want to support that amendment by the Chairman. That was a very vital law that we made as Parliament. So that when we are taxing employees on the payslip, we do not include those statutory elements in deductions. When you do so, it is double deduction. In fact, it was meant to leave some more money on the payslips of the workers. Hon. Chairman is that correct? Therefore, I support the amendment because it is progressive. Remember, one of the biggest challenges that the workers of this country are facing now is the too many levies on their payslips. This was supposed to achieve a situation whereby they have some relief. Thank you, Hon. Temporary Chairman."},{"id":1587145,"url":"http://info.mzalendo.com/api/v0.1/hansard/entries/1587145/?format=json","text_counter":227,"type":"speech","speaker_name":"Hon.

However, probably the failure to allow all deductions and relief could be out of ignorance, not knowing what was provided for. Not everybody is informed about the changes in the law. I want to ask the Chairman that once the President assents to this Bill and changes, just indicated all the allowed deductions, reliefs and everything and probably do a mwananchiv ersion. Then post or circulate it, so that even an employer in the village who has employed a petrol station attendant who only sells 10 litres a day will be informed. Just do a m wananchi guide so that Kenyans can be informed. Even Hon. Mwalimu Omboko, does not know these things yet he is a teacher and renowned person."},{"id":1587147,"url":"http://info.mzalendo.com/api/v0.1/hansard/entries/1587147/?format=json","text_counter":229,"type":"speech","speaker_name":"Hon.
