    "content": " Hon. Temporary Chairperson, before I reply to Hon. (Dr) Oundo, it is important to mention that as a result of these two schedules, the renumbering of the schedules is going to change. The wisdom in having the NSSF and private entities is that this law is not trying to re- invent the wheel. The most important function of this law is to provide a framework for this Fund by making it a revolving fund. The Board of the Fund should not get into the business of building these affordable houses because this will be done by the listed agencies. From the public hearing meetings, we learned that the NSSF and other private entities have been running very successful programmes. Some county governments have signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with the State Department of Public Works asking to implement the housing projects. This law is giving this Fund power and making it accessible to these institutions so that they can continue to do what they have been doing. We will benefit from the expertise and experience they have gained throughout the years by providing affordable houses to Kenyans."
