    "content": "collaboration between those two levels of government. That will ensure that persons with disabilities in this country are taken care of and recognised in our laws. As I wind up, I dare reiterate that this Bill is not just about political rhetoric, but a deliberate action for the people at the bottom of the pyramid, who did not choose to be born with disabilities, but found themselves that way. We must ensure that we protect, save and safeguard their livelihoods. Therefore, I congratulate the Committee for the good work they have done. I also congratulate the Chairlady, Hon. Alice Ng’ang’a, Member for Thika Town, and the sponsor of the Bill, our good friend, Senator Crystal Asige, and all the people that have contributed to the Bill to ensure that being born with a disability or finding yourself with a disability is not a crime. It is something that needs to be supported. They are Kenyans like us. God created us all in his own image. Therefore, we must make sure that all of us live and work collectively and towards the welfare of the great people of this country. Lastly, there are people we do not celebrate enough: the staff of Parliament. I am looking at our Director of the Table Office, Mr Tiampati, looking at Members walking in to contribute and he is wondering what time he is going to get home. The sacrifice Clerks-at-the- Table and Serjeant-at-Arms who sit into the night make in ensuring Parliament is facilitated to work and achieve its objectives as mandated by the Constitution is commendable. I applaud you on behalf of the people of Molo and the great people of the Republic of Kenya. With that, I support, Hon. Temporary Speaker."
