    "content": "Secondly, it has to do with the sentencing. Hon. Gedi must now spread her bed of roses; not on thorns because in the general law by which one of our Members was a victim last week, if there is a problem, let us say, Kshs100,000 has been misappropriated, all the court will do is to multiply it by two and get you to pay it. That is how those people are paying billions of shillings as fines. So, we must see how the spirit of sentencing and spirit of penal law under that Regulation has accorded to the Act. Otherwise, if we create some inconsistence, then the courts first will have a very hard task on sentencing and it will be very readily rendered redundant. So, that is one area. I have not had a privilege, I must confess, of reading this Report because it is not available in our digital system. Those are some of the issues that we want to see how consistent the provisions are."
