"content": "are not aware of the gold that they have. Therefore, there is need to build capacity in this area. This is a good Bill but it should also have a component for Persons with Disabilities (PWDs) in the counties. When you talk of local content, investment, capacity building and people benefiting from the resources; all counties should ensure that they grow together with PWDs. This is because most of the time when we have attractive Bills like this one, PWDs are usually left out. Therefore, there is need to bring them on board so that we can have inclusive development that will benefit the whole nation. There is a question mark when counties thrive yet PWDs have been left out. It is important to bring in the issue of disability, because it is a global concern. Nations worldwide are thinking of how they can grow together with their people, which includes lifting up PWDs so as not to leave anyone behind. I, therefore, strongly support this Bill, which is well thought out. It is going to drive this nation very many miles from where we are. Congratulations to Sen. Moi for this wonderful Bill."
