    "content": "Hon. Speaker, the creation of the authority is something that makes me support this Bill. The composition of the authority is very intense and has a broad-based membership. You will find that an ordinary man or woman can be a member of that authority, thus giving it the opportunity to get input from not just medical doctors or professionals, but also from ordinary Kenyans. The one thing that stands out for me in this Bill is two words - consent and agreement. For example, I maybe a woman in her 40s and in my dreams, I have always dreamt of having a child who has lots of political power. Then I cast my eyes and see the Speaker being made a spokesman of a whole important region and say that, that is where I am going to cast my net. The two words ‘consent and agreement’ protect men who would fall victims of such women. They bring integrity to this whole process of the Bill. Another thing I also like about this Bill is that it protects children who maybe the outcome of this technology. A child is a child regardless of how it comes into this world. It needs to enjoy the full benefits as other children who may have come into this world through the natural process. Another thing which makes me like this Bill is that a condition is set that not anybody or situation will use this technology offered, except on the advice of a medical practitioner where it is ascertained that a couple is unable to have children in the natural manner."
