    "content": "World economy. Those are the things that I think even as we begin to do national census next year, we should come up with real figures as to how many people are homeless. This kind of intervention will straightaway go to those who are most needy across Kenya. That is also another way of looking at Vision 2030 and its attainment. This country set very clear goals that must be achieved and attained within possible space of time, and 2030 has been set as the barometer upon which our industrialization, decent living, job creation and all those good things that come with it shall be pegged on. We need to also carry out research on why most Kenyans do not enjoy good living standards. Is it because of the traditions, perhaps, that we have had for a long period of time that may need to be amended by various communities? Is it because our people consider urban setups to be the best place to live in and discard their rural setups? These are things that Parliament, together with the laws that will be amended, must put a very serious commission to seriously address these most fundamental issues about housing. Therefore, the Sessional Paper before us is a very good one. We need to universally support it for the welfare of the country and the welfare of those who are destitute within the Republic of Kenya. Therefore, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I support this Motion. Thank you."
