Thank you, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, for giving me this opportunity to second this very good Motion. On the outset, I want to thank the Mover of this Motion, hon. Oloo-Aringo, for a well thought-out Motion, which is pro- the-poor. I also want to thank a few hon. members of this House who moved pro-the-poor Motions. Among these Motions was the one moved by Eng. Karue and the just concluded Motion by hon. Ojaamong. Indeed, the Mover has very eloquently moved this Motion. As a Seconder, I could just bow, second it and sit down. He has concluded the ...

Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, the Bill has not been introduced in the House. But I have just seen a draft or something that looks like a Bill. What I am saying is that we should hasten to pass this Motion because is it is straightforward. The Mover has articulated properly why we need that legal framework. It is not anything different from other professions. She, indeed, elaborated on that. The engineers, quantity surveyors and other professionals have their own legal frameworks. The reason why we have rampant corruption in the procurement processes is because we do not have a ...
