Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I stand to support this Bill. For a long time, there have been no regulations yet assisted reproductive technology is all over the world. It helps couples who cannot get children and want to have them. Previously, many people were taken advantage of and there were many problems because there was no formal system and everything was done under the table.

Our girls have been misused, their eggs harvested and sold to other people. The Assisted Reproductive Technology Bill will put an end to this, create functions for the directorate, obligations of the national Government, give directions, guidance, rules and regulations on how assisted reproductive technology will be done. Previously, everybody was on their own and at one time it was ridiculous.

I speak from a point of not only interest but I was involved. Sometimes ago, I spent over Ksh1 million trying IVF and was taken advantage of by quacks who did not have experience. I can proudly say that my wife and I attempted assisted IVF four times and finally God was very kind to us and granted us quadruplets – 4 children at one time. It was a great feeling. The issue is having IVF recognised as a way of giving birth. Perhaps a person of my age might have problems but there is nothing wrong with assisted reproductive ...

During IVF procedure an egg is taken from the mother and a sperm from a father so there is no third party involved. There were times when eggs or sperms were donated. In as much as agreements were established, some people came from Europe and other places to get donations of embryos and surrogate mothers. The problem was that this was not being done in the right way and there was no law to establish agreements.

The Assisted Reproductive Technology Bill will end this and give rights of parents, donors, community and the country. As my sister Hon. Elachi has said, this is not a way for LGBTQ or same sex parents to have children. No, it is not and should be respected. In the Bill, I have seen something about rights to assisted reproductive technology by intersex persons, consent of assisted reproductive technology services and duties of assisted reproductive technology expert. We are creating a framework of all aspects previously left unattended and unclear in law Hon. Temporary Speaker, you are a Senior Counsel, and ...
