    "content": "Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker, for giving this opportunity to add my voice in support of this Bill. Anything that can add towards celebrating achievement and people who have contributed to our society is something that we have to support and approve. We recently debated a Bill in this House on museums and houses of national heritage. This Bill reminds me of that. It brings the importance of leaving these stories for young people to know and understand where they come from and how their communities and environments have been shaped by these people that we want to celebrate in this Bill. So, it is something that I truly support. I will speak on it a little bit more. The framework provides for the recognition by counties of persons who have made significant contribution to the county as well as the country, which is of great importance. Although we have national leaders who have contributed nationally, there are also those who contribute in a smaller way in the village, wards or counties and require their own level of recognition. Therefore, I appreciate the fact that we are looking at it from a county and national level."
