    "content": " I beg to move: THAT, Clause 7 of the Bill be amended by deleting Clause 7. I intend to delete Clause 7 in its entirety. I seek to do this because the Kenya National Innovation Agency shall already have taken up the registrar’s role. The agency is responsible for the registration of start-ups under this Bill. The Kenya National Innovation Agency will be better positioned to track the progress of start-ups, maintain a database of registered entities, and evaluate their impact on the economy. The data will help in shaping future innovations and policies. We are not here as a House to duplicate duties. If a duty is already allocated to an agency, then we have no business using this piece of legislation to create another entity to do exactly the same work. As it is - and I had said this in the morning - the issues we are prosecuting here sit across very many sectors. Technology, education, youth, innovation and now trade. So, we do not want to have a place where we are duplicating the role of a registrar."
