Accountants have asked Parliament to amend the law to ensure that taxes and levies are netted off before an employee's pay is subjected to Pay as You Earn (Paye).

The Institute of Certified Public Accountants of Kenya (ICPAK) and consultancy firm Deloitte told Parliament that to prevent over-taxation on personal income, a maximum tax band should be set.
