    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for noticing that I really want to contribute to this Bill. From the outset, I support the Bill, and just like those who have raised many concerns about our country and about the nuclear energy, I also have my concerns. Yes, we know the value of nuclear energy, but sometimes I feel like we are planning too far. We know nuclear energy is cheap. We also know nuclear energy is efficient. We know we can have a lot of power for industrialization and we will have enough for our hospitals. We know that we will have enough power for our healthcare and machineries in the health industry and we will have enough power for powering even our vehicles and lighting. Yes, nuclear power could be the solution, but is it the priority today? Yes, we need the regulations so that when nuclear power comes into the grid, we have enough regulations. But I am wondering whether a country which cannot collect garbage in Nairobi and manage the Budalang’i floods is able to contain waste disposal that is created by nuclear energy. Other countries in the world have found it very difficult and have had problems for a long time. For example, Chernobyl, Iran and Japan have problems of nuclear energy that can escalate for many years. Are we ready to think about nuclear energy? I support, but we should look at it more."
