    "content": " I thank you for giving me the opportunity to contribute to this Bill. It is a Bill that has been enacted to repeal the contracts, re-enact the Government contracts and to provide for connected purposes. My first point is that we should ensure as we enact this Bill, we are able to tie the definition of the word ‘contracts’ to include Government contracts that we enter into in terms of loans that are advanced to the Government. The reason why I am saying this is because the loans we procure on behalf of the Government carry with them contractual obligations and penalties thereof. Therefore, if this is the case, not only do we need to put this in contractual written form, but we also need to ensure that there is approval by the National Assembly in terms of a Bill which I am aware has been initiated by the Member for Emgwen, Hon. Kosgey."
