    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. My time is running out. The most shocking thing in our country is that the more things change, the more they remain the same. People have been complaining about police force since Independence. A new Constitution was brought to this country. We changed the name “Kenya Police Force” under the command of a Commissioner of Police to the current “National Police Service” under the leadership of the Inspector-General. The Constitution is very clear. It says that national security is subject to authority of this Constitution and Parliament. We are supposed to hold the police accountable. That is what we are doing this afternoon. This is where they are supposed to be held accountable for their actions, commissions and omissions. If we are the ones who are defending them as if they are our gardeners or staff at home, we are lost. Where else will they be held accountable, if it is not on the Floor of this House? The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor."
