    "content": " Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, I beg to move: THAT, clause 19 of the Bill be amended ─ (b) by deleting sub-clause (2); (c) by deleting sub-clause (3); Sub-clause (1) provides sufficient ground for expulsion, but sub-sections (2) and (3) introduce something called “public morality.” What is public morality? In our own laws in Kenya, we have done away with public morality. Other than that, if you look at Article 32 of the 1951 Convention relating to the status of refugees, which Kenya acceded to on 16th May 1966, it clearly provides for grounds of expulsion, which is what is provided in sub-section (1), but it does not include the issue of morality. It goes against Article 27 of the Vienna Convention on the Law of Treaties and other treaties to which Kenya is a signatory. So, I propose deletion of those two sub-clauses. The issues of concern for expulsion are already provided for in sub-clause (1)."
