• 27 Aug 2014 in National Assembly: Thank you, hon.Temporary Deputy Chairman. First, is this amendment to Clause 25A? I support it fully because really there was no reason. view
• 27 Aug 2014 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Government is government, whether at the county level or the national level. They are supposed to be used--- view
• 27 Aug 2014 in National Assembly: As I was saying, there was really no reason why the Government, or the National Treasury, stopped WithholdingTtax; this ensured that VAT collectable or payable actually reached the Kenya Revenue Authority. I support this because usually when there is input and output tax, as the Chairman put it, the difference is just about six per cent. So, it reduces claims. It has the effect of reducing the claims of input tax and at the same time also helping the Government to get money. view
• 27 Aug 2014 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, just allow me--- view
• 27 Aug 2014 in National Assembly: We have been blamed in this House for passing Bills without reading them. I think this is the right time to put our thoughts to it. The issue of agency and departments should not worry anyone. Really, agencies are Government parastatals, State corporations, Constituencies Development Fund, but not private bodies, in my understanding. view
• 27 Aug 2014 in National Assembly: If you go to the parent Act, you will see the definition of “Government agencies.” I am sure that is there. view
• 27 Aug 2014 in National Assembly: On the issue raised by hon. Wambugu, I think this is a mistake we made as a House. I remember hon. Wambugu pleading with us to allow this amendment but, because of the law which is in place about a money Bill, we could not consider it. We are now presented with an opportunity to correct it. view
• 27 Aug 2014 in National Assembly: Finally I am only worried about this amendment in 25C(b), the supply of taxable services in respect of goods in transit. This has been misused a lot of times in this country. We have ended up exempting goods from tax and then the same goods are diverted to the local market. view
• 27 Aug 2014 in National Assembly: We are there hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. I am very alert. This is the last bit of Clause 25. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor. view
• 27 Aug 2014 in National Assembly: I am seriously concerned about this, because I know this has been misused a lot of times; we exempt goods from taxation and then they end up being diverted to the local market; they flood our local market unnecessarily. So, I do not know whether this is a good amendment or the Chairman can consider removing it, so that we pass the good apples. Thank you. view
