    "content": "Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, the Bill also provides for disciplinary action on those professionals who will have flouted the set out standards that are provided. Take for example, the collapsed buildings. If this was done by someone who is already registered, it is very easy to call the person. There are disciplinary procedures that are set out in the Bill on how the registered persons can be disciplined. I have taken more of my time because of the passion that I have on this, but this is not a money Bill. There will be a fee just like any other for those who are registered. That money will be used to run the affairs of the board. Therefore, there should be no fear at all as to whether this is a money Bill or not. I call upon Members to support this Bill. I considered it good to move with global practice. Once we produce professionals, we are not only producing professionals for our country alone. Sometimes, they seek for jobs outside Kenya. The only way you will convince people who are out there that you are a professional and you know your work is when you are registered with a body that is recognised. So, this is a way of ensuring that the high unemployment rate is minimized. They can work locally or outside the country. The best practice is that all professions should be regulated. This is one of the professions that I am seeking to regulate."
