"content": "Sorry, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. Possibly, the Member has not really understood me. I am trying to outline the challenges the National Assembly has gone through with the Ministries in coming up with this Bill. The gist of my submission is that we know the Government is making an initiative to come up with the Bill, but they have had the time from 2012. This is past the fifth year yet, they have not done much. This gives us all the more reasons why we should support this Private Member’s Bill. That should assuage the Member that I am far from dissuading Hon. Nyokabi who I have actually started by appreciating her contribution. I was only giving the background to illustrate that the Government does not seem to appreciate the significance of this Bill. It seems the Government itself has actually shown a lot of reluctance given that the initial Bill was done in 2012."
