"content": " Thank you very much, Hon. Temporary Chairman. I am still on the contentious clause that we are dealing with. I heard Hon. Chepkonga bring up the issue of semantics. In all honesty, we say that the devil is in the details; the difference between a purchaser, a proprietor and an owner are clear as shared by Hon. Otiende. As a House, we need to be very careful. We should not pass a clause that is in contradiction with the Constitution. We all know that the Constitution is supreme. In my view, we should review and re-look at the provisions of Clause 42B because it is in direct contradiction with the Constitution. We do not want to pass a law only for someone to go to court tomorrow and stop this whole process yet we had the opportunity to do the right thing."

"content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Chairman. There are certain nuances of law that we all need to understand on a matter such as this. There is the concept of absolute ownership of property and the limitations that come with that. When you read this, there is a drafting problem. I have not seen the definition of a purchaser in the documentation. We need to address that. Secondly, we need to understand very clearly that affordable housing has special arrangements; they are subsidised and not a purely market thing, and so, there must be some restrictions. It is not the first time that our laws have put the concept of consent on the enjoyment of private property. We have Land Control Boards for agricultural land; they are for the specific purpose of ensuring that agricultural land is protected and managed in a certain way. This is not a new concept; the concept of consent is allowed under our laws."

They all attend their village schools just like I attended the Alliance High School."
