    "content": "of checking implementation is with the Committees, we want to make sure those Bills are properly implemented and that the country moves on in the right direction. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, we can have Export Processing Zones (EPZs) in all our counties and nothing stops that. In fact, I would hope that in Migori County, where my good friend is going to be the next Governor, that there will be a major EPZ. They can have cotton is grown, ginned and processed there. Young people will be employed there so that we can only worry about the market. The market for cotton products is mammoth world wide. You can imagine that the people who are doing that work in Athi River today, are using the benefits and the protocols that this country has, signed with other countries like the United States of America (USA) like the African Growth and Opportunity Act (AGOA). They are using these components to process their textile and export, using Kenya as the country of origin. That cotton does not originate from here and it is a shame. It is now time that we reverse that process and have our own cotton, process and export. With those few remarks, I beg to move and request that you put the vote on another day."
