    "content": "financial or otherwise are going to benefit from this. It is a very progressive recommendation. The provisions for registration of companies in this country for businesses have been a long process with a lot of red tape. The Bill proposes that there shall be monitoring and evaluation of the legal and regulatory framework in order to put in place mechanisms to encourage the development of startups. Only somebody who does not wish Kenya well shall oppose this Bill because this is a very progressive Bill. On innovation, there are stories of people who are very creative and innovative. I know of one. I am happy that the Senator of Nyeri County has got into the House a particular man known as Gachamba. In the 1980s’ he had innovated and tried to make an aircraft Instead of the authorities encouraging this particular innovator, he was arrested. I hear the police that arrested him, asked him to produce a license for flying a plane. Had this Bill been there, he would have been guided, and his innovations incubated and encouraged. There are many such people in our society. We need to support this Bill because it promotes innovation."
