Hon. Duale should sit and wait for my conclusion before he jumps to give me direction on what to do and how to do it.

Secondly, in the wider tripartite, the employees of this country were not brought on board. This is one reason we are saying this is not a good law. Finally, this will interfere with trade unions. In sections 10, 36 and 41, that is why we decided to delete this amendment because it is not a good law.

On a point of order, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. I am the Chair of the Departmental Committee of Labour and Social Welfare. Is it in order for some Members to mislead the House that the Child Welfare Society of Kenya is a commercial entity? It is like we are misunderstanding its role and that of adoption homes.

It was created under a legal notice
