    "content": "sophistication in everything, even in the way people do things, the way criminals operate and so on. So, we must keep with the times by introducing changes that everybody can be comfortable with. Those who us who cross the road to go to County Hall must have seen people driving from the roundabout at very high speeds and yet, there are so many vehicles ahead of them as they approach Uhuru Highway. They drive at very high speeds and there is a pedestrian crossing sign. We cannot take some of these things for granted. They must be documented. The only thing we must do is this: We must make sure that we do not step on other peoples’ toes. The bigger picture of it is in Chapter IV of the Constitution on the Bill of Rights. Everybody must have his/her space. Everybody must have his chance. Again, everybody must also be given an opportunity to perform whatever role he/she is supposed to perform. School children must be given the peace for them to perform in school. Equally, the Members of Parliament must also be given peace to perform their roles. If each one of us respected the space of others, then there would be no conflict. It is because of the human nature that they keep on trying some things. When they are given the opportunity, they try to do excesses. That is why we want to make an improvement on this privileges aspect. The issue of the former MP is a sad one. He had to come out of Parliament. In fact, I met him yesterday walking outside here very desperately. The sooner PSC puts in place some measures that can protect him or, at least, get him out of the problem--- My friend, hon. Odanga is saying that everybody must have a salary. Even if you have a salary, it has a purpose. Somebody cannot just put on you something like that. Even if it was Kshs1 million or Kshs100,000 which is not within the scope of what you are supposed to do with your money, it will still be a burden. So, Kshs10 million is a lot. PSC should then take steps to have the former Member of Parliament sorted out of this. With those few remarks, I support."
