"content": "Thank you Hon. Wandayi, for raising the issue and the Hon. Leader of Majority Party and your Deputy. What I would like the Hon. Leader of Majority Party and your team to do… I am told the Sugar Bill is on the Floor of the Senate this week or next week. One of the impediments in fast-tracking Bills as you know under the Constitution, every Bill from the Senate must come to this House and not all Bills from this House go to the Senate. You have the Chepkonga Bill on bicameral relations and there is another Bill that has been brought by you. You must address the issue of public participation. If a Bill originates from this House and has gone through extensive public participation, is it necessary for it to go through the same mill when it gets to the Senate and vice versa? Public participation is public participation and it is the same public and the same House. When you pass a Bill, it becomes an Act of Parliament. It is not an Act of the Senate. It is not an Act of the National Assembly. You need to address the issues of public participation so that we do not have duplex processes on the same process of legislation. That will expedite the process of Bills. As I have told you, there are those Bills around Articles 109 and 110 of the Constitution that can deal with that issue. The Committee that is dealing with that matter can address those issues to help the processing of Bills in a very special way. I have discussed the same with Hon. Murugara. He looks tired. He is yawning. Is that Hon. Farah? Is it on the same issue?"
