    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, for the opportunity to contribute to this Bill. First of all, I applaud Sen. Sakaja – although in his absence – and Sen. Mutula Kilonzo Jnr. for coming up with this Bill. Indeed, they have the interests of this House at heart. This Bill is timely because sponsors of Bills in both the National Assembly and the Senate encounter difficulties. Whenever you think of coming up with a Bill, you have to ask yourself whether it is a money Bill or not, and whether it will go through. You have to ask yourself so many questions before you bring a Bill on the Floor of the House. This particular Bill will give strength, especially to the newcomers like us. With the passage of this, when you come up with a Bill, you will not fear whether it is a money Bill or just an ordinary Bill. This Bill spells out the framework of determining the nature of a Bill and the procedure to determine whether it concerns counties or not. When you look at the framework of this particular Bill, you will realize that it is just trying to put things in line so as to seal the loophole that Members have been experiencing."
