    "content": " Ksh500,000. Sorry, Hon. Temporary Speaker. As a Committee, we agreed that owing to the times we are living in, there are some instances where the statutory instrument might require someone to pay a heavier penalty. The current statutory instrument requires a payment of only Ksh20,000. So, we had proposed to increase it to Ksh500,000, but the Senate thought that Ksh1 million will do better and will actually take us many years without amending the Statutory Instruments Act again. As a Committee, we agreed with the proposal to amend that clause. That marks the end of the amendments that were proposed by the Senate. As a Committee, we recommend that the Bill be passed as amended by the Senate. I thank the Members of the Committee on Delegated Legislation and the staff for having looked into this matter twice; first, when it was before the National Assembly and the second time when it came back from the Senate for the consideration of their amendments. That was work well done. With those many remarks, I beg to move and ask the Member of Parliament for South Mugirango, Hon. Osoro, to second."
