    "content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, what I have realized is that people really listen to their elected leaders and it is important for the involvement of Members of Parliament so that our people can really hear our voice concerning the Women Enterprise Development Fund (WEDF) and how it works and how it helps our people. For example, not so many people are aware that the loans which go to the constituency level specifically to the groups; that is the special scheme that is there for the women groups at the constituency level do not attract any interest rates. People do not know that and we like involving the sitting Members of Parliament so that these women can be able to come up in big numbers and take these loans. I just want to give an example. With regard to Homa Bay County, you will find that there is one constituency which has accessed over Kshs9 million and yet there is one which has accessed only Kshs2 million and yet they are in the same county. So, it really depends on how the people’s representatives are involved in this."
