Thank you very much, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. I support this amendment because it has allayed my fears of a company which was supposed to collect funds for 10 years extending it to 20 years. That would mean that they get an extra 10 years of collecting our revenue.

We have just got Quorum even without ringing the Quorum Bell, yet Chairmen and Vice Chairs of Committees are missing. These two are supposed to be moved by the Chairman and the Vice Chairs.

I believe we lose a lot of money through what we call tax evasion. In Kenya, tax evasion has become heroic. People pride themselves on how they have evaded taxes. Why do they not evade taxes when we are still analogue and when we still need a whole truck carrying loads and loads of goods to offload and count literally and we are short of human resource? They get tired. They assume ...
