It appears that for as long as we disagree on these matters, we will be misreported, misquoted and told all manner of things. Personally, I said that we must have, like what happens in all other administrative organs of the Government, control, distribution of power and so on. Mr. Speaker, Sir, this Parliament is controlled by the Judiciary which is controlled by the Executive, which is controlled by Parliament. There must be checks and balances. I said this in Mombasa, but somebody in the print media reported that I urged the President not to sign the Bill. The President must assent to this Bill. He should! Why?"
