There is also the danger of embryos that will be… Because now we are giving a license. There are many measures within this Bill on how to control the people who will be given the chance to carry out those test-tube processes. However, we risk having a situation where we shall not just be seeking to get the intra-vitro fertilization, but we shall just go to a shelf and pick children because they will be fertilised already. So, you can just pick human beings and walk away with them. We need certain checks, and to add to Hon. Oku’s words, ...

Thank you, Hon. Speaker. This is a matter that has been on the Floor of the House so many times, coming from Members of Parliament representing people around those areas and now from the people themselves. I would wish that, possibly, you empower the Committee, if there are any such powers, like you recently did with the Departmental Committee on Energy. You spoke to them to deliver. Otherwise, this is a matter that is always talked about here. Many a time, I hardly speak on it because I do not come from such areas. But I notice this House will ...

Thank you, Hon. Speaker. Thank you, Leader of Majority Party for recognising that despite the fact that I am a first time Member, I am also a seasoned Member. Without any further ado, it is very important we do those businesses as he has explained. I, therefore, second.

Thank you, Hon. Speaker for the very good guidance that you have given us. It complies with the Constitution, Standing Orders and every other section of the law. As you have guided, I stand with it.

However, I notice that most of the amendments can be stepped down in future. The role of Parliament is not only to make laws but also to sensitise Kenyans about what is being done and the reason it should not be done. I beg the Chair of the Committee to allow some of the amendments by private Members to be spoken on in future, so that the public may know their stand.

Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I rise to ask Question No.203/2021 to the Cabinet Secretary for Interior and Coordination of National Government. (i) What action is the Ministry taking to curb the increased cases of insecurity in Emuhaya Sub-County, particularly Ambali, Emakakha, Ebuyangu, Ipali and Ebukhaya areas of Emuhaya Constituency? (ii) When will the Ministry provide necessary motor vehicles, given that there are none, to Ambali, Emakakha and Ebuyangu police stations and police officers to Ipali and Ebukhaya police posts in Emuhaya Constituency, so as to facilitate security operations in those areas? The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is ...

Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I bring to your notice what you have been told as good behaviour from the Cabinet Secretary for Interior. Yesterday, three of us were called in a hurry to go and receive our Questions which had taken a very long time. As you have been told that the Cabinet Secretary is now behaving, the behaviour is not good because you are asked to go and receive your answers at the last minute. That is what we went through and we were unable to get there on time. So, I wish that even as they come back ...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for this opportunity. At the outset, it is good to congratulate the Mover of the Bill. Hon. Wanga was able to go through the Bill easily and in an elaborate manner that every person would understand, leave alone the demands for having a degree or none. I am sure everybody was able to understand it, which was very good. You will almost imagine she had a very serious economist and an accountant behind her. That is something which the Committee did. I, therefore, congratulate the Committee. The Finance Bill is crucial to Kenya. This ...
