    "content": "the Bill. It needs to be implemented. Many Acts of Parliament, like the National Cohesion and Integration Act of 2008, require all public institutions to ensure representation of the diverse Kenyan people in employment. That is what the Member for Mombasa, Hon. Zamzam, has just talked about. Additionally, the National Gender and Equality Act of 2011 talks about, inter alia, promoting equality and freedom from discrimination. It also talks about mainstreaming of gender, persons with disabilities and other marginalised groups in national development, including development of affirmative action policies. We have many laws that I can quote but the essence of all this is the implementation of the laws. I believe that if we pass this Bill, we will hold the authorised officers accountable for their actions because they will bring those reports to the legislators, whether it is Parliament or county assembly to take action. With those few remarks, I beg to reply. Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker."
