    "content": "Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, the construction industry is the foundation of development of any country. If this industry is not well regulated and does not have a proper foundation on how to function, then the country cannot move forward. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I must say that our construction industry has been in a maze and remains to be in a maze for a long time. This is because for one reason, this industry lacks regulations. If the regulations are there, they are not enforced. I believe this Authority that we wish to establish will be able to rein in the contractors, so that they can behave. As most of my colleagues have said, the construction industry is full of âcowboyâ contractors. These people have fleeced this country. This country would have developed. However, because of these cowboy contractors, this country is still many years backwards. So, I believe when we establish this authority, it will be one that will enforce what this Bill is talking about. I believe that we will put in place very serious regulations. I am a Member of the Committee on Transport and Public Works. We have a lot of amendments which we want to put in this Bill. When it comes to the Bill of Quantities (BQs), this country has lost so much money. I do not know how these BQs are determined by our engineers and specialists. This is an area where I believe the Minister will have to look into and we must reinforce this in this Bill. When you see the types of BQs that that we are given by our engineers, you wonder. You can go ahead and build a latrine for Kshs50,000, but the BQs from our engineers will say you need Kshs700,000. So, this is an area where we need to look at."
