    "content": "bo (Gem, ODM): Thank you very much for this opportunity, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. More importantly, I rise to support the Kenya Industrial Research and Development Bill of 2020. It is important that we, as Members of Parliament, who are at the top of legislating for this country support one another in legislating for something that will help the country move forward. I know we are also a budget-making House. It is important that chairmen of all the respective committees ensure that when budgets are brought here, we put a lot more emphasis in budgeting for research and development. There is no country in this world that can go places and experience exponential growth and innovation without investing and putting our money where it is required. I am aware, for example, of the many innovations that have been done in this country even the innovations that are done in a small way. Take for example my constituency where a member developed a mechanism for stopping lightening. That in itself is innovation. If we do not support them, they die a natural death."
