"content": "this is a body that is yet to pick up and develop teeth as we say. That is the reason why it is seeking the teeth to bite and do this work. This is a Bill that seeks to protect majority of our people who are generally SMEs in this country. Our economy is largely driven by SMEs. Therefore, I strongly feel that they must be protected in this country. About 90 per cent of persons who form the SMEs that this Bill seeks to protect are majorly the persons or small companies that are protected by what we call marginalised groups in the Constitution. That is where persons with disabilities, young people and women fall. Those are usually the owners of small businesses. They are small-scale suppliers who supply our markets and build our economy. I am happy because the Competition Authority of Kenya seeks to have teeth to bite to identify when the rights of suppliers are not taken into account."
