"content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker for giving me this opportunity. Let me congratulate and thank the Committee on Delegated Legislation for coming up with this very important Bill. From the beginning, let us note that we are the people’s representatives in this country. Any decision that is meant to benefit them must come through a consultative process. I am saying so because some Government agencies come up with very infamous laws and by-laws. The cry from the people always comes to Parliament. Most Kenyans end up bearing with them without necessarily benefiting. That is why I am emphasising this is very important. We are making our people aware of laws that are meant for their benefit. So, we are strengthening important laws which Government agencies have been making. By bringing this Bill, we will propose more ideas. Without belabouring so much, I wish to support because this will eliminate some of the weaknesses that we see in the by-laws. Hon. Temporary Speaker, with those few remarks, I fully support."
