"content": "Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I would never want to interrupt a fantastic flow of thought by the Senator for Homa Bay. The only information I want to put forward to him, as well as the rest of the Members is that 5 per cent was not a number that I arrived at on my own or in consultation with stakeholders which are the county assemblies. This 5 per cent comes directly from the Constitution, in Article 54, which says that every elective and appointive position in the country should be given to PWDs at the rate of 5 per cent. That is where I got the inspiration to add in this amendment. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, as Sen. M. Kajwang’ continues with his wonderful contribution, I wanted to inform him about that provision. I thank you. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Director, Hansard and AudioServices, Senate."
