    "content": " Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I beg to move that The Microfinance Bill be now read a Second Time. As I alluded in my Budget Speech earlier this year, our economy has recovered. What is important now is how we drive it forward. But despite the recovery, poverty and unemployment are still a challenge to us as a country. In order to address these challenges substantially, the economy of our country must expand upwards by about 10 per cent as envisaged in our Kenya Vision 2030, November 8, 2006 PARLIAMENTARY DEBATES 3515 whose design and development process was launched by His Excellency the President just the other day. One of the tools that can help us to achieve this vision is The Microfinance Bill, which will go a long way in deepening access to financial services by the less privileged in our society."
