"content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. When we last adjourned on this particular Bill, I was making the point that some matters are too serious to be left to regulations. It is so grave where delegated legislation authority is being vested by this House anywhere, particularly where penalties of up to ten years, Ksh10 million or Ksh20 million are being proposed. It is not a misdemeanour. Preferably, it should be within the body of an Act of Parliament. Where that is not so, such penalties could be prescribed in regulations. The Committee on Delegated Legislation should not just table the regulations in this House for purposes of noting or approval. This House must debate them, and the approval of the House duly signified. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor."
