Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, the input of this amendment, because I am a member of the Departmental Committee on Labour and Social Welfare Committee, is that we need to make our country have ease of doing business by making sure that all remittances are done on a particular date, so that you do not keep on remembering and remitting this month and this date. It will be cumbersome for some of those institutions to be doing remittances every day of the month. That is why it is considered. That is the input. I do not think it is in conflict ...

Thank you very much Hon. Speaker. I stand to support the Petition by “His Excellency” Hon. Aden Duale. It is very important because people cannot be denied services yet they have been vetted and proved that they are Kenyans. Any child born on the Kenyan soil is actually a Kenyan.

Hon. Speaker, I do not see the reason it should go to the Departmental Committee on Administration and National Security. Being the third most powerful person in Kenya, Hon. Speaker, give a directive that the people who have been proved to be Kenyans be given IDs and Huduma Namba. Hon. Speaker, you are third in command, give that directive.

Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I rise to also support this Petition by the former Leader of the Majority Party. It is timely because citizenship is a human right, and therefore, it beholds this Government to ensure that every Kenyan citizen is registered as per the law. Therefore, I support that, and going forward, there is need to ensure that we devolve the units that register Kenyans as citizens because, right now, we have very many young people in the villages who have not yet been issued with national ID cards. Thank you.

Thank you very much, Hon. Speaker. Though I was extensively mentioned by Hon. Mbadi, who insinuated that I was fraudulently elected as the Students Organisation of Nairobi University (SONU) Chairman, I want to put it on record that I was elected with the highest ever cast votes in SONU. He is an expert in finance and not in election matters. Hon. Speaker, we need an extension. In fact, the extension should not be two weeks. It should be six months because this is a very weighty issue.

Hon. Speaker, they have had 65 sittings. It is one year. They met over 65 groups, including a group of persons living with disabilities. In the midst of this pandemic, sometimes their meetings had not been up to standard because of social distancing. There are people who have not yet appeared before them. Hon. Junet said that we are not supposed to amend even a comma. It is the Constitution that dictates that it should come to this House and be debated in an informed position. So, I totally support the Committee because we gave them that mandate. It is, ...

Thank you very much, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for giving me this opportunity to also inject my voice on this very important Bill that is the Business Law (Amendment) (No.2 of National Assembly). It is a very timely Bill because our The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor.

country has been rated as being not the best, but above there, in terms of doing business and ease of doing business. We have been attracted business magnets because of this friendly environment and we need to make it friendlier. As I support this Bill, as a country, we need to put our priorities right. On the just concluded Supplementary Estimates, around Kshs250 million has been slashed from the National Council for Persons with Disabilities of which Kshs50 million is to buy sunscreen lotion to protect our brothers with albinism from getting cancer from the effect of sunrays. Therefore, we ...
