    "content": "The Member for Gichugu, hon. Martha Karua, supported the point of order by the Member for Garsen, hon. Mungatana, but also added a further claim that having gone through the Elections Act as published, she was struck that the penalties for offences related to elections contained in the Act were not the same penalties passed by the House. She claimed, in particular, that the House had passed a provision that, after serving a three-year jail term for an election offence, a person would not be eligible to serve in the Public Service for ten years. She called for thorough scrutiny of the Elections Act to reveal what she termed as “many other errors” which to her appeared to be a deliberate scheme to alter the contents of the Act. She also called for scrutiny of the Bills passed during the same season."
