The Kenya Revenue Authority (KRA) wants the High Court to suspend the disbursement of car allowances to members of the county assemblies, pending the determination of a petition on whether the payment should be taxed.

The taxman says in an urgent application that the county assemblies will proceed and disburse the amounts together monthly emoluments to the MCAs, without taxing the money.
