The High Court has suspended the Finance Act, 2023 indefinitely in spite of the Treasury’s argument that government operations will grind to a halt due to the freeze on the collection of some taxes.

Justice Mugure Thande extended the freeze granted on June 30 until the case filed by Busia Senator Okiya Omtatah and six others is determined, handing taxpayers and consumers a reprieve.
