    "content": "I want to emphasise three points that have been raised. They all emanate from Clause 4 where we point out very clearly and appropriately that we will consider those SMEs that will be registered at the counties. In Clause 8 of the Bill, we see that infrastructure, regulations and the basis for operationalisation will come from the County Secretary. Thirdly, it is based on lessons learnt. As I commend the Committee and say that this Bill is timely and necessary, I want to remind the Members that as a House, we do not only have the legislation role. So, it is extremely important that we define and bring a legal framework such as this one which is useful. We also have the oversight and representation roles. My major concern is that as those standing for representation of the people, it is useful that we ensure that our legislation is, to a large extent, cognisant of the terrain or background that we operate in."
