    "content": " Hon. Temporary Speaker, as a Government, Country, Republic, Nation and State, we are failing with regard to Kenya as a State. This is because we are becoming a very over regulated economy. We have 334 Semi-Autonomous Government Agencies (SAGAs), State-Owned Enterprises (SOEs), Regulatory Authorities and Tribunals. Majority of these bodies and authorities duplicate their roles. Going forward, we need this House to be critical and downscale this number because majority of them only serve the egos of the people who occupy positions other than rendering quality service to the Kenyan people, especially in the sectors they are domiciled. In the fullness of time, we are going to face this issue head on so that we do not have an overburdened country in terms of recurrent expenses so that we can channel most of our resources to production, quality regulations other than excessive regulation. The Government should serve the private sector and not what the private sector should. I submit."
