    "content": "She has left her seat, which was very far, and she has come closer home. So, I must be protected. We must guard the Constitution at all times. I want to acknowledge and thank Members of Parliament for taking time to review and pass the necessary legislation as the President said. I am sure many pieces of legislation that the country required went through Parliament. Among the highlights of the legislation that he said have done very well in terms of the economy and business in our country was the Companies Act and the Insolvency Act. These legislations will improve the processes that are required for one to be in business in the formal sector. The World Bank doing business indicators show Kenya to be the third most improved country in the world. This afternoon, my colleagues and I must speak to the nation. That is why we have been given an opportunity in the Standing Orders that after the President’s Address to the nation, the National Assembly will discuss it in four consecutive sittings. I hope Members will agree with me that we discuss it in three consecutive sittings this week, then we can dedicate next week to other businesses which have constitutional timelines. If we do it today, tomorrow morning and afternoon, I am sure we will be very fair to both the President’s Speech and to the other businesses which are pending."
