    "content": "interpretations of the requirements of Section 47(a)(4) of the Constitution as read together with the requirements of Agenda 1V which requires that Parliament enacts a special, and I quote “Constitutional Referendum Law” to establish powers and enactment process for approval by the people in a Referendum. In other jurisdictions within the Commonwealth and outside the Commonwealth, for instance, even when there are election laws, there is always a special constitutional referendum law. This law ought not to be complicated. It is a simple legislation that takes care of the importance of replacing a Constitution. I find no reason as to why we cannot enact one. The monies so far spent in the review process amounts to Kshs404,669,434 against a total budget of Kshs1,485,085,543. This sum, however, does not include the amount needed to conduct the referendum. Copies of the expenditure and funding estimates as well as the summarised work plan and budget for July, 2009 to June, 2010, are available, if they are required. I will be more than willing to table them."
