    "content": "Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker. Let me thank Sen. Sakaja for seconding the Bill colourfully and Sen. (Dr.) Musuruve for adding her thoughts and insights. Generally, I thank this House for the support, and the Secretariat for the support they have given towards the Bill. I can comfortably say that the legal team that worked on this Bill need a commendation. They put together this Bill and it is one of the most comprehensive Bills, based on all the research that we had done and put together. Some of the issues that have been raised by Sen. Sakaja because of the fears that we have seen loved ones locked up in a mental health institution because they do not have the capacity to express themselves. Those issues have been addressed in this Bill. This Bill has been brought in line with the human rights convention. We have a Bill to be proud of as legislators and I look forward to it going to the National Assembly to be debated there as well, so that they can have their day. I have no doubt that it will be well received because it is the sort of thing that Kenyans need with a lot of urgency. I beg to reply I wish to request that pursuant to Standing Order No.61(3) the putting of the question be deferred to a later date. Thank you."
