The National Treasury Cabinet Secretary John Mbadi has announced that the Finance Bill 2025 will not introduce new taxes, addressing public unrest from previous tax policies.

• The government aims to raise Sh30 billion through reforms and improved compliance rather than new taxes.
• Mbadi highlighted the need for tax rationalization to reduce expenditures, which rose from Sh393.1 billion in 2022 to Sh510.6 billion in 2023.
• Key proposals include reducing the digital asset tax from 3 percent to 1.5 percent and expanding mortgage interest tax relief for home construction.
