    "content": "Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, we would have addressed land issue which continue to disturb our conscience even today. As we debate a new Constitution, one of the issues that have actively remained in the public domain and which has invited most heated debate is the question of land. Yet through the Ndungu Commission on affairs related to land, we had opportunity to address them. But because we never saw that process to its logical conclusion, we lost an important opportunity to address a critical issue of national importance. I urge this House, therefore, to see this amendment in the light of the momentous opportunity we have to address a lot of these deficiencies and present this House with unique opportunity to be part of the process of bringing some of these issues to conclusion. And also to stop the habit that Government has formed of setting up Commissions of Inquiry merely for the show and for purpose of sometimes, with due respect, to hoodwink the public. I urge the House to pass this Motion and allow our new Committee on Implementation to have a major responsibility in terms of tracking reports of these Commissions and ensuring that they, not only see the light of day, but they are implemented in a manner that can contribute to taking this country forward. With those few remarks, I beg to support."
