"content": " Thank you, Hon. Speaker for giving me this opportunity to also contribute to this Bill that has been declined by the Committee concerned. As I listened, and this being my first time in Parliament, I wondered how this was the Second Reading of the Bill. So, how did the First Reading go? It means the First Reading was accepted and now we are in the Second Reading. I am concerned and I stand to be directed. Hon. Speaker, it is true if there is duplication of a Bill, and, of course, this is a money Bill, we cannot afford to have two Bills that talk about the same things going to do the same functions and yet we have many other things waiting for this House and the Government to execute. The issue of walkways is in another Bill. It is unfortunate they have not put it into use. It is true that most of our towns in the counties have no walkways. Even for the people with disabilities (PWD), at times it is difficult for them to use their gadgets, especially wheel chairs on the walkways because they are not friendly to allow them to ride along without difficulties."
