    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker, for this opportunity. Democracy is very interesting because I opposed this Bill in its totality when it was presented to the National Assembly. Now, the same Bill went to the Senate and has been brought back with amendments. This shows that probably, the Senate was listening to some of the issues we raised when we indicated that this Bill is flawed. In future, we should listen to each other here so that the Senate does not notice some basic mistakes we make because we cannot talk to each other. I hoped that the Senate would reject this Bill and save Kenyans from the burden. The Senate was established to protect devolution. Earlier on, I said that this Bill should have been a Senate Bill. The National Assembly is only mandated to deal with the national Government. Now, we have gone into the implementation of how people will get houses and how these houses will be put up. This is the work of the Senate. I hoped that the Senate would have protected devolution and insisted that this should be handled by the county governments.
