    "content": "Hon. Odhiambo-Mabona has appealed to us and this is a Bill which has been moved and passed. The problem then was that I moved it, the Government purported to want to take it over and then they went and shelved it because big companies approached the Minister for Trade then and said that they did not want to be regulated even though they were hurting our people so much. Now that the environment has changed and the Constitution has allowed us to bring this Bill, I am going to follow the advice of hon. Odhiambo-Mabona that we talk less and pass many more Bills. Just to inform my friend, hon. Odhiambo-Mabona, yesterday in the House Business Committee, we even said that we would use Standing Order No.38 and take up Government time. In fact, even tomorrow afternoon, we will be dealing with Private Members’ Bills. If they are not bringing the Bill, let us do it because we all get blamed and yet they are sleeping for whatever reason. So, beginning tomorrow, things will be different. I beg to move and request hon. Onyancha to quickly second."
