    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. I also rise to support the Bill and congratulate the Minister. This Bill was long overdue. We went through a very trying time in this country in the 1980s when locally-owned finance institutions went under because of very stringent restrictions that were imposed by the Central Bank of Kenya. With the enactment of this Bill, we see an opportunity for mobilization of resources, including merry-go-rounds that we see a lot in the villages amongst our rural folk and women who want to mobilize resources. I trust that once this Bill has been assented to by His Excellency the President, the Minister and the Central Bank of Kenya will judiciously ensure that we do not lock out people who want to harness those resources slowly and get into this sector to assist our people. With those few remarks, I beg to support. Thank you."
