    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I also rise to support the Statute Law (Miscellaneous Amendments) Bill. I appreciate that there is always a time to reflect. As daktari has said, sometimes, when a miscellaneous amendment Bill is brought, it is always good for us to look at the original law and ask ourselves why we need the amendment. I wish to look at the Public Holidays Act and I will say the same. I will not say we change or anything, but I wish this House would come up with a way of appreciating every leader who has led in this country. We must have something to appreciate so as to remember them. We will do that by looking at the legacy they left for the country. We are in East Africa and it is only in Kenya where we do not appreciate leaders who have done a lot for our country. It is important to appreciate all leaders. As much as we are bringing in utamaduni, I hope we will remember and appreciate all our former presidents, including those who have passed on, for the work they did for the country. Their legacy should be archived. 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"
