    "content": "Thank you, Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker. Let me take this opportunity to thank the Mover of this very critical Bill, Dr. Eseli. This is the first time that we are going to have a regulatory body to address the concerns that we have noted in this country. Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, the Bill also seeks to build capacity that will allow the country to move in the right direction. In countries that are really advancing, like South Korea and others, professionals have been given key attention. They are properly regulated and well paid. This Bill will also try to improve the performance of practitioners in this country. Promotion of ethics and standards will also be realized in this country. A well regulated management authority will also attract a lot of resources locally and internationally. This is really important for the advancement of our economy. It will also help to create the necessary number of professionals who will manage all the sectors of the economy and create extra manpower for export to the neighbouring countries. I note in the Bill that special recognition has been given to ordinary fellows who have not been recognized in this country since Independence. This Bill is giving special recognition to the forgotten professionals who will now be brought on board. Highly experienced Kenyans will now be able to serve in that body. It also gives a serious signal to those who really practice nepotism and tribalism in their places of work. This will be a deterrent to such people. This country has been plagued by people who are not serious with their neighbours."
