    "content": " Hon. Temporary Chairman, I support the amendment. You will recall that all ministries were previously mandated to review their regulations every 10 years under the Statutory Instruments Act. By dint of an omnibus amendment Bill that was brought to this House, that provision was taken away by the Executive. Therefore, all ministries together with their Semi-Autonomous Government Agencies (SAGAs) can table reviewed regulations as and when they deem necessary. There was a lot of fury in the last few days about certain charges that had been preferred by the State Department for Immigration and Citizen Services. One was expected to pay Ksh50,000 if one wanted to get married. This amount is over and above the dowry price. Many other punitive charges were infused into those regulations. The regulations had not been brought to Parliament for consideration. 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."
