    "content": "The second thing that it does is that it will discourage what we call xeroxing or copying other people. That is where people steal other people’s thesis and dissertations. Those dissertations are kept well so that we know the particular areas where people have researched on and so, you do not need to waste your time trying to research on a matter that has been well researched. You can only find that in a well-equipped library which is well organised. Thus, this Bill provides a framework within which those libraries will be organised. Hon. Temporary Speaker, the third thing that this Bill seeks to do, is to distinguish the functions of the KNLS from all the other libraries. We do not know which is the Grand Norm. In law- and Hon. Millie and Hon. Kipchumba know this - we have something called the Grand Norm. The Grand Norm is like the Constitution. That is the Grand Norm of this country. The Grand Norm from the libraries is the KNLS where you can find any book that you are looking for purposes of helping you in advancing knowledge in this country. Hon. Temporary Speaker, as I said, you cannot develop without research and research can only be as good as the library that this country has. I have visited a number of countries and the last time when I was a Commissioner of the Parliamentary Service Commission (PSC), we visited Arkansas. When we went to Arkansas, we visited the William J. Clinton Library The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly.
