    "content": "officers and public officers. That is important because once the wealth declaration is made, it is filed to somewhere and nobody has an access to anything. So, it is only the institution that is employed that gets access to that information. However, once this Bill is enacted, any public officer is accountable to the public. The public are the people who pay the taxes. Therefore, if the people do not have access to that information, they will never know whether somebody has been living beyond their or within their means. Madam Temporary Speaker, the consequences of the Bill is that it creates a mechanism for undertaking lifestyle audit on public officers. This will go a long way in tackling and arresting corruption in the country. It will also deter corrupt practices by public officers who will be reluctant to steal public resources and flaunt them in public. Pursuant to Standing Order No.140 (1) and (5) of the Senate Standing Orders, the Bill now stands committed to the Standing Committee on Justice, Legal Affairs and Human Rights which will facilitate public participation and account for the views of the recommendations of the public. Madam Temporary Speaker, I wish to move this Bill and request Sen. Omogeni of Nyamira County to second."
