    "content": "the participation of the special interest groups in electoral process. For us to have more of these persons in these categories in Parliament, we need to have more actors than just the two political parties or one large coalition. It is for that reason that perhaps we have targeted the issue of distribution of funds, but there is an attempt by the Bill to ensure that political parties spend money in the branches. If there are no activities at the branch level, we would not be able to help persons in this category to access representation or to have presence in Parliament and the county assemblies. We believe that the various amendments to the various Acts as proposed in this Bill will help actualise the provisions of Article 100. In coming up with these, we did quite a bit of concentration and a lot of public participation. There was an attempt to come up with a stand- alone Bill, but when we tried to put that thinking to some critical process, eventually the only way possible, up to where we are, is to try and amend those particular Acts. We believe that would go a long way in ensuring that Article 100 is actualised. Hon. Speaker, with those remarks, I beg to move. I ask Hon. Wamunyinyi to second."
