    "content": "Maybe I should go to the next point. When we come to the amendment, I will ask for it. 1588 PARLIAMENTARY DEBATES May 23, 2007 Mr. Speaker, Sir, the next point I wanted to raise is on Article 7. In normal circumstances, rules do not provide where a dispute will be resolved in case of a problem. Even the statutes that we pass in this House rarely provide for where a dispute will be sorted out. Of course, sometimes they do because some say that you must go to a subordinate court and some say you must go to the High Court. But what is the mischief here? Why is it that for the first time, in a mere rule of establishing an Assembly, Kenyans must say, specifically, that in case there is a problem with an election, it will be determined by the High Court of Kenya. We want to host the jurisdiction of the East African Court of Justice. We want to say that these problems are domestic. We also want to say that if there is a problem, then it is ours and yet we are creating and referring to an institution of the East African Community (EAC). How do you want to create an Assembly for the Community and yet when there is a problem with it, you decide it in the High Court of Kenya?"
