    "content": "Yes, indeed, Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir. But the essence of that amendment is so as to keep the provisions of the subsection within the spirit of the Act. We also have \"d\" where we propose to amend the subsection by deleting the words \"a police station, police office or\" which will have had the effect of turning the Kenya Anti- Corruption Commission (KACC) offices into a police station or police office. Once again, those will be vulnerable to abuse and misuse. The KACC has access to police stations and if necessary can keep their suspects in various police stations as are available. Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, with regard to the proviso, we have proposed that the proviso be deleted altogether. This is because there is a danger that, if that proviso were allowed to apply, then we may end up with a situation where we are establishing a parallel police force that does not have the necessary infrastructure, command and discipline as we have in the police force. There is also a danger that the Director of the KACC may, in fact, usurp the powers of the Commissioner of Police because the proviso says that if he acts as a policeman then he will be deemed to be of that rank. We have the case of the Artur Brothers coming into mind---"
