"content": " Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I wish to have a say on this one and support it. We must appreciate that what the Counsel is seeking has been done by the previous Chief Justice, Hon. Maraga. He automated the court systems. The current Chief Justice is also on record as saying that she is going to enhance matters of ICT in the court systems. Unfortunately, she mentioned something yesterday which caught my attention, that we have less judicial officers. So, in as much as we are going ICT, we need to have more judicial officers to deal with these matters. Of course, we also know the tactics of lawyers. They try to adjourn matters unnecessarily. So, as much as we are saying that we must automate court systems, lawyers must also change their ways in terms of adjourning cases unnecessarily."
