    "content": " Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, what you have said is true. Hon. Duale knows that I am very robust normally. I was invited by Hon. Kaluma from the Committee. We are trying to harmonise. We have managed to do some and not others. I encourage the Committee as I know some of them are usually not here when we are in the Committee of the whole House, when a Member brings amendments, it is not an attack on the Bill, but rather it is to strengthen the Bill. I have brought many Bills that people have brought amendments with my support because I know they are strengthening the Bill. So, I just want to encourage them not to feel that when I am bringing amendments that I am attacking the Bill. First and foremost, I am a Kenyan and unlike my sister Mwende Mwinzi whom we are attacking in this House, I do not have dual citizenship even though I am married in Zimbabwe. So, my allegiance is to my country Kenya even though we are dealing with refugee matter. I am also not a refugee, but I have the interest of the country first. Having said that, the reasons for moving Clause 3 is for diction and terminology. The terminology that is used there is not legal. It is archaic. You cannot say it is “done” but it is “adopted in.” So, it is more of proper language. I thank you."
