    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. This is the said Senator for Kakamega County, invited by the Senate Majority Leader to second the Motion. I agree and rise to do so. Whereas, Senate Majority Leader has taken a fairly reasonable short time, but seriously speaking, this is a procedural matter. Being procedural matter, the good comments and the comments adding value that the Senate Majority Leader has spoken to, and which subsequent speakers might speak to, will come at the actual time of consideration. I, therefore, support and second this Motion that the National Assembly Amendments to the County Licensing (Uniform Procedures) Bill (Senate Bill No. 9 of 2022) be now considered. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I have been in the United Kingdom (UK) for 10 days. Like most parliamentarians in the Commonwealth, one never misses a chance to visit the two Houses of power in the UK, both the House of Lords and the House of Commons. When I was there recently, I was happily reminded of how we transitioned from the old system to the bicameral one. I am glad of this, in keeping not only with the United Kingdom (UK), but also with the USA. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, just like the Senate Majority Leader said, we want to standardise these issues. We want to attract the right people into place using our common practice. To allay the fears of the Senator of Kericho, the long-serving head of the Chamber of Commerce in Kakamega County is a very respected man from Shinyalu by the name of George Musindi. I would love many other areas to have a man with those kinds of qualities. With those many remarks, I second the Motion. I thank you."
