    "content": "Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. This Bill devices mechanism of dispensing excess scrap metal from dealers and I hope in the same spirit, mechanisms will be devised of getting rid of scrap metal that has littered our towns and urban areas and have become a big nuisance. Finally, this Bill regulates the industry; it tames unscrupulous traders, through the licensing regime and penalties. Although as the previous speaker has said, I think the Kshs10 million and Kshs20 million penalties for first and second offenders to me is high and, in the Third reading, this amendment is welcome. Otherwise, the Bill brings order and integrity to the trade, from a superficial observation of ordinary citizens, who usually view those people who deal with scrap metal, and particularly those who collect and transport as weird people, who do not know what they are doing. This Bill dignifies the scrap metal traders and, as such, it deserves all the support. I support. Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker."
