    "content": "Thirdly, we need to look at the issue of quarrying and mining. Very soon people will not have to go to the ground to do geographical surveying for this mining. People sit in the office and use satellite to discover major minerals in the parks. However, you will find somebody, because of their position in Government, being given licence to go and mine in the park. It is high time we came up with laws that would ensure that those with high technology do not rob Kenyans during daylight. They need to be controlled. It is important that we put that in law. Lastly, it is about investors. We have been having issues with quite a number of people who want to come and build hotels within the Maasai Mara. This has to be done within the law. Let us come up with laws that protect the interests of tomorrow’s Kenya. Let us not have people walking into our country and then walking away with the credit of what is our nature. I support this Bill. I would like the Committee to engage all of us so that we move together as a country. That way, we will come up with a Bill whereby we will not be looking to amend the law. When we pass the entire Bill, let us pass it together with the amendments."
