Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker, for giving me this opportunity to give my comments on this Finance Bill. I stand to support it and confirm that this Bill is timely. It is a Bill which will bring to effect the Financial Year 2016/2017 budgetary proposals and also give the framework under which the Kenya Revenue Authority (KRA) will be collecting taxes. It is also going to give those areas which we need to exempt, add, reduce or to make any other changes. Therefore, it is a very important Bill because it gives the teeth to the budgetary proposals and gives ...

Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I want to comment on the Petition on the dismissal of an officer from the Defence Forces. There should be a framework on how somebody is disciplined and dismissed from work which should take due course, not just taking disciplinary action and dismissing a person. This is because they suffer psychologically and the family members also suffer. Maybe, he is the breadwinner of his family and extended family.

Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker, for this opportunity. I appreciate the efforts of the Chairman and his Committee on the issue of the Murera Gate-Meru National Park Road.

The road was tarmacked over 15 years ago and it has never been repaired in any way. In that connection, tourists have stopped going to Meru National Park. The park is almost closing down. Nobody visits it because of the pathetic state ...

Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I stand to second the Procedural Motion to reduce the dates on this important Bill. That money is long overdue. We have been waiting for that money for a long time. Being on the homestretch, we need that money as fast as possible. I do not see why Members should oppose this Procedural Motion because it will enable us to move fast and get this money to our constituencies and complete the development projects which have been there. I second.

Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, thank you for giving me this opportunity to contribute. I support the deletion of the words “infringe on the” and substituting it with “substantially prejudice the”. It will make the Bill stronger. I support the amendment.

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for giving me the opportunity to be the first one to second the Civil Aviation (Amendment) Bill. At the outset, I want to say that this Bill has come a bit late. It is quite timely because these are the laws which are giving the previous Bill the strength to cope with the current changing times. Laws have changed and things change at the same time. We have to move in tandem with the same. Air travel has become quite complex. It has expanded very much.
