    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, for giving me the opportunity to second this Bill. Before I proceed, I want to empathize and sympathize with Sen. Mwaura concerning the issue he has just brought on the Floor of this House. It is real issue, but very painful. He said that he did a lot of research on this Bill for many years, but it was delayed and it has not been dispensed off, yet he is a PwD and a champion of PwDs. I really feel him and empathize. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I hope that using your position, you will try to see that this issue ends. You will find a legislator working tirelessly on a Bill and when it is ripe to be executed, you hear that another Bill has come up. I also empathize with him because I have been going through the same issue regarding the Kenyan Sign Language Bill. When Sen. (Prof.) Kamar and I brought it on the Floor of this House, we executed it and it was to go to the National Assembly. However, outside Parliament, there was a lot of work that NGOs were doing concerning Kenyan Sign Language and it was being developed from elsewhere using our content. It is painful because it took many years and we used to leave office very late. Our class helped us in terms of the input and beefing up. We were given a team from the Senate that helped us make it be what it was. Eventually, we heard that it was coming from the National Assembly. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I know I will get your protection. Having said that---"
