    "content": "What the people in Government have done is that they have taken what is in existence now as the Kenya Institute of Administration (KIA) and training institutes in Mombasa, Matuga and elsewhere and replayed them without thinking outside the box. It is our duty, as legislators, not to let this Bill pass the way it is. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, the people in Government do not want to think outside the box. They want to let this Bill pass, so that they can say they have a law but they are not giving us anything new. They are not telling us anything new. In fact, this is a piece of legislation which we need to really scrutinize again. I want to invite the Minister – because some of us take time to look at these Bills – to go and look at it again and bring appropriate amendments because this Bill is not good as it stands. I am also asking myself a question: We are living at a time when money is a problem. Why should we exempt Stamp Duty for the proposed Kenya School of Government? Why should we have Clause 19 saying that any instrument executed in relation to--- The proposed School of Government will be raising funds. If you buy my idea, we will have private students coming to the school. The school will not be depending on Government alone. There will be money from private students who will be charged appropriate fees. Why exempt it from Stamp Duty, which is required for development? With those few remarks, I beg to support."
