VAT Bill: Jubilee to support amendments on maize flour, bread
Jubilee MPs will support amendments that will exempt maize flour and bread from taxation in the proposed VAT Bill.
President Kenyatta said the move was agreed during a Jubilee Parliamentary Group meeting held Tuesday.
"Members of the Jubilee Parliamentary Group agreed to support the amendment when debate on the Bill begins in Parliament," said a statement from the Presidential Press Service Wednesday.
"A successful amendment will ensure these vital commodities continue to be zero-rated."
