    "content": "We have the dispute resolution process where a tribunal is being established. This is very important. As usual, this is going to be part of the Judiciary because they are now saying that all tribunals should be condensed under the Judiciary. This House has not agreed to that proposal 100 per cent and we will have to look at that to see whether from this Act, it is a tribunal that is going to be established for a specific purpose, apart from just dispute resolution. The Committee will consider making it a special tribunal so that it is able to escape the grip of the Judiciary. Otherwise, it will have to be controlled and run from the Judiciary. From there, we have the section on general provisions, transitional and saving provisions, and delegated powers. This is only subsidiary legislation which is extremely important. In fact, without regulations which are going to flow from this Act, we may have difficulties in enforcing this particular law. This is a very important piece of legislation. I want to see a technopolis somewhere in Tharaka Constituency or Tharaka Nithi County so that, as we talk about Konza City, we also talk about other cities that are established nearer to the people - whether in Isiolo, Kitui or anywhere else - so that we can do technology-driven businesses as other parts of the country. Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. With those remarks, I beg to support. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly.
