MASWALI NA MAJIBU Na.155 Kampuni za Biashara Kutoa Asilimia 0.3 ya Mapato Yake kwa Halmashauri MHE. OSCAR R. MUKASA aliuliza:- Sheria Na. 9n ya LGFA ya Mwaka 1998 inazitaka Kampuni za Biashara kutoa asilimia 0.3 ya Mapato yake (baada ya kulipa kodi zote) kwenye Halmashauri wanapofanyia shughuli zao,lakini zipo kampuni ambazo zimekuwa hazitoi malipo hayo kwa sababu tu shughuli zao ziko kwenye Miji mikubwa kama Mwanza, Dar es Salaam, na baadhi ya kampuni za jinsi hiyo pamoja na TIGO,ZAIN na VODACOM ambazo zimeshindwa kulipa kiasi hicho kwa Halmashauri ya Wilaya ya Biharamulo. Je, Serikali iko tayari kufanya marekebisho haraka kwenye utaratibu uliopo sasa ili sheria hiyo iweze kutekelezwa kulingana na kusudi lake? NAIBU WAZIRI, OFISI YA WAZIRI MKUU, TAWALA ZA MIKOA NA SERIKALI ZA MITAA: Mheshimiwa Naibu Spika, kwa niaba ya Mheshimiwa Waziri Mkuu kabla ya kujibu swali la Mheshimiwa Oscar Mukasa, Mbunge wa Biharamulo napenda kutoa maelezo mafupi kama ifuatavyo:- Mheshimiwa Naibu Spika, sheria ya fedha za Seriakli za Mitaa Sura 290 ilitungwa na Bunge mwaka 1982 na hivyo kutumika kwa zaidi ya miaka 28. Kwa muda wote huo yametokea mabadiliko mbalimbali ya kisera, kiuchumi, kijamii, kisheria na kihasibu ambayo yameifanya sheria hiyo kuonekana imepitwa na wakati. Kufuatia hali hiyo na kutokana na hitaji la utekelezaji wa sera ya D by D, ilionekana kuna haja ya kupitia sheria hiyo ili kuyaingiza mabadiliko mbalimbali katika mfumo wa sheria, pamoja na Memorandum ya fedha za Mamlaka za Serikali (Local Authority Financial Memorandum of 1997). 2 Mheshimiwa Naibu Spika, nakubaliana na Mheshimiwa Mbunge kwamba sheria ya fedha ya Serikali za Mitaa Sura ya 290 kwa mujibu wa kifungu cha 7(1) (z) inazitaka kampuni za biashara kutoa asilimia 0.3 ya mapato yake (baada ya kulipa kodi zote) kwenye Halmashauri wanapofanyia shughuli zao, lakini zipo kampuni ambazo zimekuwa hazitoi malipo hayo kwa sababu tu Makao Makuu ya shughuli zao yako kwenye Miji mikubwa kama vile Mwanza na Dar es Salaam. Tatizo hili sio kwenye Halmashauri ya Wilaya ya Biharamulo peke yake bali lipo karibu kwenye Halmashauri nyingi nchini na Wizara yangu imekuwa ikipokea malalamiko mengi kutoka kwenye Halmashauri hizo mfano, Kahama, Mtwara, Mikindani,Geita na kadhalika zikilalamikia baadhi ya makampuni kutolipa kodi ya huduma. Mheshimiwa Naibu Spika, baadhi ya Halmashauri hazina sheria ndogo zinazoiwezesha kukusanya ushuru huo wa huduma na hivyo makampuni hayo kutumia mwanya huo wa kugoma kulipa na wakati mwingine ni suala la tafsiri ya sheria yenyewe na sheria ndogo za Halmashauri. Napenda kusisitiza kwamba msingi Mkubwa wa ushuru huo ni mahali ambapo kampuni na taasisi inafanyia shughuli au biashara zake ili mradi kampuni na taasisi hizo zina ofisi. Mheshimiwa Naibu Spika, kwa kutambua changamoto hizo Wizara yangu tayari ipo katika mchakato wa kuifanyia marekebisho sheria ya fedha za Serikali za Mitaa Sura 290. Baadhi ya mambo muhimu katika mapendekezo ya sheria hiyo ni kupanua wigo wa kulipa ushuru na kuweka mfumo mzuri wa ulipaji wa ushuru,(service levy) kwa kuondoa migongano iliyokuwepo ambayo ushuru huo ulikuwa unalipwa kwenye Halmashauri ambayo kampuni hiyo ina Makao Makuu hata kama shughuli zake zinafanywa nje ya Halmashauri. Mheshimiwa Naibu Spika, mapendekezo ya marekebisho haya yataziongezea mapato Mamlaka za Serikali za Mitaa, yataziwezesha Serikali za Mitaa hizo kugharamia shughuli mbalimbali za maendeleo, yataziondolea Mamlaka hizo migogoro juu ya Halmashauri ipi inapaswa kulipwa ushuru kwa huduma na kupunguza ukwepaji wa kulipa ushuru mbalimbali katika Mamlaka za Serikali za Mitaa. Mapendekezo ya marekebisho hayo kwa sasa yanajadiliwa na wadau mbalimbali kwa kupata maoni ambayo yataboresha utekelezaji mzuri wa sheria hiyo. Baada ya kupokea maoni hayo tutaleta hapa Bungeni mapendekezo ya marekebisho ya sheria. 3 Mheshimiwa Naibu Spika, namshauri Mheshimiwa Mbunge awe na subira wakati huu ambapo wadau wanaendelea kutoa maoni yao kwa lengo la kuifanyia marekebisho sheria. (Makofi) MHE. OSCAR R. MUKASA: Mheshimiwa Naibu Spika, nakushuru na nashukuru majibu ya Mheshimiwa Naibu Waziri, lakini naomba kuwa na swali moja la nyongeza:- Kwa kuwa, Naibu Waziri amekiri hapa kwamba hili ni tatizo na ni tatizo ambalo ni pana kwa maana linatokea kwenye Halmashauri nyingi na kwa kuwa tatizo hili limekuwa la muda mrefu na hivyo Halmashauri zetu zimekuwa zinakosa mapato hasa ukichukulia kuna baadhi ya Halmashauri kama ya Biharamulo ambayo wigo wa mapato ni mdogo. Je, Serikali ipo tayari sasa baada ya kukiri kuanza mchakato wa kurekebisha sheria hii, iko tayari kututhibitishia ni lini mchakato huu unatarajiwa kukamilika ili kuepuka uwezekano wa mchakato kwenda kwa muda mrefu bila ukomo? NAIBU WAZIRI, OFISI YA WAZIRI MKUU, TAWALA ZA MIKOA NA SERIKALI ZA MITAA: Mheshimiwa Naibu Spika, labda niweke vizuri hapa jambo hili tusije tukafika mahali watu wakaanza kufikiri kwamba sasa kwa vile tunaanza marekebisho. Kwa hiyo, tunamaanisha kwamba huu ushuru usilipwe. Nimecheki na Dodoma, nimecheki na Arusha, nimecheki na maeneo mbalimbali yanaendelea kuokota ushuru huu pamoja na mapungufu haya ambayo nimekiri kwamba yako hapa. Sasa anataka kujua ni muda gani itachukua, wewe mwenyewe unafahamu na Wabunge wenzangu wote tunafahamu kwamba kipindi hiki huwa hatuleti sheria hapa, tunazungumzia mambo ya Bajeti tu. Kwa hiyo, tuombe tena Mungu akitujalia tena huko mbele ya safari kama tutakwenda, tutapita salama mimi ninaamini Serikali ipo na tutafanya marekebisho hayo. MHE. HAROUB SAID MASOUD: Mheshimiwa Naibu Spika, pamoja na majibu mazuri sana ya Mheshimiwa Naibu Waziri ambayo yanaleta mategemeo, na kwa kuwa swali lililoulizwa linahusiana na simu za mkononi na kwa upande wangu mimi naipongeza Serikali kwa kutoa muda wa kutosha kabisa kuhusu usajili wa simu, lakini lililojitokeza ni kwamba wenyewe wenye kampuni za simu watu wamesajili, lakini wanapouliza namba zao na wanapopiga simu wanasema hazijasajiliwa. Je, zitakapofungwa simu zao baada ya tarehe 16 Julai, 2010 nani atachukua dhima ya fidia ya gharama ambazo anakula hasara mteja? WAZIRI WA MAWASILIANO, SAYANSI NA TEKNOLOJIA: Mheshimiwa Naibu Spika, juzi wakati nikiwasilisha Bajeti yangu nilieleza kwamba kikomo cha kusajili simu ilikuwa ni siku ya tarehe 30 Juni, 2010 ifikapo saa sita usiku, lakini nikaongeza kwamba kutokana na usikivu ya Serikali ya awamu ya nne ya Chama cha Mapinduzi, imetafakari kilio cha watu walio wengi na kuongeza majuma mawili hadi 4 kufikia tarehe 15 Julai, 2010. Tamko hili limepokelewa kwa hisia mbalimbali, wengi mtakuwa mmesikiliza kipindi cha redio jana asubuhi na kwenye magazeti. Watu walio wengi zaidi wamelaumu kwa kuongeza huo muda kwamba Watanzania tunaonekana kwamba hatupendi kufuata discipline ya maamuzi tunayoyafanya na kwamba tumeongeza muda wa watu kutukana zaidi wakati huu tunapoelekea kwenye uchaguzi. Kwa hiyo, sio nia ya Serikali tena kuongeza muda wa kusajili simu na ifikapo tarehe 15 saa sita ya usiku simu ambazo hazijasajiliwa zitazimwa na mpaka pale watu watakapoweza kulipia tena. Mheshimiwa Naibu Spika,napenda kutoa hayo maelezo. Na. 156 Ujenzi wa Kituo cha Afya kila Kata na Zahanati kila Kijiji MHE. RICHARD M. NDASSA (K.n.y. MHE. DR. IBRAHIMU S. MSABAHA) aliuliza:- Je, Serikali ina mpango gani wa kuhakikisha kuwa ujenzi wa vituo vya Afya katika kila Kata na Zahanati katika Kijiji unatekelezwa? NAIBU WAZIRI, OFISI YA WAZIRI MKUU, TAWALA ZA MIKOA NA SERIKALI ZA MITAA alijibu:- Mheshimiwa Naibu Spika, kwa niaba ya Mheshimiwa Waziri Mkuu naomba kujibu swali la Mheshimiwa Dr. Ibrahimu Said Msabaha, Mbunge wa Kibaha Vijijini, kama ifuatavyo. Mheshimiwa Naibu Spika, mpango wa Maendeleo wa Afya ya Msingi (MMAM) umeanza kutekelezwa mwaka 2007 na unategemewa kukamilika mwaka 2017. Moja ya mambo ya muhimu yanayotekelezwa ni ujenzi wa kituo cha Afya katika Kata na Zahanati kwa kila Kijiji na ujenzi wa Hospitali za Wilaya. Ili kuhakikisha kuwa lengo hilo linatimia, Serikali kupitia MMAM imepanga kutekeleza kwa hatua mambo yafuatayo:- 5 (i) Uimarishaji wa vituo vya Afya na Zahanati zilizopo ili ziweze kutoa huduma bora.

  • Did They Perform? Assessing fi Ve Years of Bunge 2005-2010
    Policy Brief: TZ.11/2010E Did they perform? Assessing fi ve years of Bunge 2005-2010 1. Introducti on On July 16th 2010, following the completi on of the 20th session of the Bunge, the President of Tanzania dissolved the 9th Parliament. This event marked the end of the term for Members of Parliament who were elected during the 2005 general electi ons. Now that the last session has been completed it allows us to look back and to consider how MPs performed during their tenure. Did they parti cipate acti vely and represent their consti tuencies by asking questi ons and making interventi ons, or were they silent backbenchers? The Bunge is the Supreme Legislature of Tanzania. The Bunge grants money for running the administrati on and oversees government programs and plans. The Bunge oversees the acti ons of the Executi ve and serves as watchdog to ensure that government is accountable to its citi zens. To achieve all this, Members of Parliament pass laws, authorize taxati on and scruti nize government policies including proposal for expenditure; and debate major issues of the day. For the Bunge to eff ecti vely carry out its oversight role, acti ve parti cipati on by Members of Parliament is criti cal. MPs can be acti ve by making three kinds of interventi ons: they can ask basic questi ons, they can ask supplementary questi ons and they can make contributi ons during debates. This brief follows earlier briefs, the last of which was released in August 2010. It presents seven facts on the performance of MPs, including rati ng who were the most acti ve and least acti ve MPs.

  • THE RISE and FALL of the GOVERNMENT of NATIONAL UNITY in ZANZIBAR a Critical Analysis of the 2015 Elections
    162 DOI: 10.20940/JAE/2018/v17i1aDOI: 10.20940/JAE/2018/v17i1a8 JOURNAL8 OF AFRICAN ELECTIONS THE RISE AND FALL OF THE GOVERNMENT OF NATIONAL UNITY IN ZANZIBAR A Critical Analysis of the 2015 elections Nicodemus Minde, Sterling Roop and Kjetil Tronvoll Nicodemus Minde is a PhD candidate in the United States International University – Africa, Nairobi, Kenya Sterling Roop is a political analyst in Telluride, Co., USA Kjetil Tronvoll is Director, Oslo Analytica and Professor and Research Director, Peace and Conflict studies at Bjorknes University College, Oslo, Norway ABSTRACT This article analyses the pitfalls that characterised the emergence and eventual demise of the Government of National Unity (GNU) in Tanzania’s semi-autonomous region of Zanzibar. Drawn from continuous political and electoral observations in Zanzibar, the article analyses how the 2015 general elections contributed to the eventual dissolution of the GNU. The GNU in Zanzibar was a negotiated political settlement between two parties – the incumbent Chama cha Mapinduzi (CCM) and the Civic United Front (CUF). In particular, this article looks at how the start of the constitutional review process in Tanzania contributed to the withering of the GNU. Despite its undeniably noble agenda, the constitutional review process resuscitated old enmities between CCM and the CUF. The two parties’ divergent stances on the structure of the Union revived the rifts that characterised their relationship before the GNU. We analyse the election cycle rhetoric following the run-up to the elections and how this widened the GNU fissures leading to its eventual demise after the re-election in March 2016. After the 2015 elections were nullified, the CUF, which had claimed victory, boycotted the re-election.
