• 30 Aug 2016 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, I have received a request from Hon. Tonui, who is also a Member of my Committee to move this amendment. I will move it so that the House will consider it. view
• 30 Aug 2016 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, I beg to move:- THAT, Clause 21 of the Bill be further amended by inserting the following new paragraph immediately after paragraph (d) – (da) by inserting the words “excluding school buses” immediately after the words “vehicles” appearing in the item entitled “motor vehicles of tariff heading 87.02,87.03 and 87.04.” Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, basically, as you have said, the amendment seeks to exempt school buses from VAT. School buses are required by public schools. That is the proposal by Hon. Tonui. On behalf of Hon. Tonui, I request hon. Members to support the amendment. view
• 30 Aug 2016 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, I want to support the further amendment by Hon. Tonui because it cures some of the questions which the Members had. When giving them the benefit we should look at the bigger good as opposed to a few people who may abuse the process. I support because it is enhancing and taking care of questions raised by Members. view

• 30 Aug 2016 in National Assembly: Hon. Mbadi usually says he is my senior. I am moving the amendment to Clause 22, but I am dropping paragraph 22(a)10, which is on excisable goods imported for direct use in the manufacture of sanitary towels. After further consultations, I have received information that there are no excisable goods for manufacture of sanitary towels. If they were there, then they should be listed. 22(a) 11 is excisable goods to the national carrier and local airlines for both local and international supply upon recommendation by the Cabinet Secretary responsible for transport. There are so many exceptions which the Kenya National ... view
• 30 Aug 2016 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady. I would like the Hon. Member to relax because we listened to him in the Committee. That is why, initially it was already there. If we make a law which says “excisable goods imported for direct use in the manufacture of sanitary towels,” without listing them, then it cannot be implemented. view
• 30 Aug 2016 in National Assembly: I had agreed with him in the amendment of Value added Tax (VAT) which is coming before this House. I have listed the tariffs and everything else. This is just a general statement which cannot be implemented. In any case, he should say which goods are excisable. view
• 30 Aug 2016 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, the Member is already informed that those goods which are used for the manufacture of sanitary pads are not excisable. So, even if we argue, we will still reach the same conclusion. I had a small opportunity to listen to what he was saying. He was talking about railway development levy.
