    "content": "Thank you, Hon. Speaker for allowing me to give my contribution to the SACCO Societies (Amendment) Bill. At the outset, I support it because it is very important. This Bill identifies the unique features of the deposit-taking SACCOs and tends to distinguish them from other SACCOs. It also goes a long way in enhancing the integrity of the officers who will be working in those deposit-taking SACCOs. Many SACCOs have been set up in the past, and ended up squandering people’s deposits. People deposited their money in those SACCOs and, at the end, the ones who got rich and empowered were the officers working in those SACCOs. This Bill tries to enhance the governance structures of running SACCOs. It is also important because it tries to empower SASRA to impose minimum standards on directors and senior officers of SACCOs as The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor."
