Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker, for giving me an opportunity to contribute to the Bill by Hon. Mejjadonk, the Member for Embakasi Central.

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I also rise to support the National Infrastructure Fund Bill. It reminds me of the Public Procurement and Asset Disposal Act, 2015, which provides for the disposal of assets, but it can sometimes be problematic. When I read through this Bill, I see that there...

Yes.
