"content": "work, especially during the Third Reading. That should concern us as a House. Apart from Hon. Mayaka and perhaps now, Hon. Nyakundi, I do not see many new Members participating actively in the law-making process. Hon. Millie Odhiambo, I believe you have a responsibility to train other female Members to follow your example in legislative engagement, as Hon. Mayaka has done by consistently staying here. Even my friend from Mbooni, he too is always here during the Third Reading. That is where the actual law is made. That is where one makes a real difference for this country. It is not merely in the Second Reading where we engage in general talk. Hon. Temporary Speaker, we need to find a way to bring new entrants. Otherwise, I can assure you that if we have new Members in the 14th Parliament, we will have a problem during Third Reading and Committee of the whole House. I do not know what you will do, but the numbers in Third Reading are thinning which is not good for this country. I thank you."

"content": " I thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. You know very well that I learn from the best. I also give my accolades to the Committee, that is led by fellow CPA Hon. Kimani Kuria, for this particular Finance Bill, especially the theme around encouraging policy rather than just looking at the common mwananchi to increase taxes. This is something I wish more legislators were here to listen to because we are the first people who should prosecute this matter in the courts of public opinion. The members of the public need to hear from us. We have experienced situations where people treat the Finance Bill as their enemy, without seeing the nitty-gritty of it. This particular one has shown us that we can draft and prosecute a Finance Bill that is beneficial to mwananchi. Even as I make my remarks and thank the Committee, I urge our parliamentary communication staff that when they post on our social media platforms, they need to show Kenyans their key and big wins so that they can learn that this is a very good Bill. My greatest benefit out of this Finance Bill, which I have spoken to twice, is no taxation on pension funds and retirement benefits. With those very few remarks, I urge Kenyans to familiarise themselves with this particular Finance Bill. It is a fantastic document. We need to encourage each other that the country is going in the right direction."
