The Majority and Minority sides of Parliament seem to be having a standoff over the Special Import Levy Amendment Bill 2025.
The bill, which was recently referred to the Finance Committee of the House, saw the committee presenting its report to the plenary on Wednesday, March 26, 2025.
The Chairman of the committee, Isaac Adongo, during his presentation of the report, revealed that the committee approved the bill by a majority approval, as the members of the Minority Caucus on the committee opposed the bill.
He further proposed that the sunset for the bill be set in perpetuity instead of 2028, as announced by the finance minister.
