    "content": "Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, making Kenya a centre for arbitration is extremely good. It will not only save our business people the cost of having to travel to New York and other European cities to do arbitration, but it will also help lawyers, who are, in fact, domiciled in Kenya, to access international clients, who will pay good fees. This will have a ripple effect on the economy. So, without saying so much, I would want to join the hon. Members who have spoken before me and say that we should pass this Bill in the shortest time possible to enable us move the country move forward, and make our contribution towards unclogging the myriad of cases that are within the law courts in Kenya. I would urge hon. Members to take this as one of those Bills on which we need to co-operate and pass for the good of all of us, so that the country can move forward. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, other the concern about the original jurisdiction of the High Court of Kenya that is grounded in the constitution, which I want the Attorney-General to speak on, this is a good Bill, and I think hon. Members will pass it as soon as possible. With those remarks, I beg to support."
