"content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I can see the dynasty is trying to distract me yet he has had his time to speak. Protect me from this dynasty. I am in support of this Bill. It has come at the right time. I congratulate the Chairman, Hon. Kuria Kimani, and the Members of the Committee for the exemplary work they have done. I am very happy they have elaborated so much on the issue of contractors. Indeed, contractors have suffered in this country. I am very sure the provisions in this Bill will cure all the mess that has been happening both in the national and county governments whereby our contractors are suffering. Most of them get contracts through dubious means. They have to do very funny things like giving bribes. This Bill has come up to cure those ills. Contractors, both in national and county governments, will have a proper way of doing things and also be paid early enough. We have had cases in the county governments where most contractors have not been paid for long and they end up being miserable, frustrated, stressed up, and even some die because of not being paid. Therefore, this Bill has come at the right time. Payments will be made on time so that contractors can enjoy. It will cure the issue of foreign contractors getting big tenders thus"
