"content": " Let me explain what I mean. In as much as I agree with you, I think the drafters of the Constitution did not envision or anticipate a period where the President would reject an entire Bill and send it back to Parliament. Hon. Speaker, our powers are limited to either amending the Bill in light of the President's reservations, or pass it a second time without amendments. After we do that, we usually send it back to the President as Article 115(3) of the Constitution states. You have put it very well, that where there is a lacuna in law, this law-making institution - the Legislative Arm of Government - is also free to make or amend a law, where the Constitution of Kenya which is the supreme law of the land is silent."
