"content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, so is the hon. Member who is asking the Question. The hon. Member knows very well that the corporation wrote to him on 8th June, 2004. We were requesting for details of what was being claimed. The claimant went to see a lawyer. The lawyer also wrote to the corporation claiming Kshs22.3 million. We have written to that lawyer asking him to furnish us with the details of the claim. No details have been forthcoming. Whereas Parliament is not a court of law as Mr. Mukiri has said, it is not a place to lay claims without showing what they are based on. I want to say the following in good faith: As soon as my Ministry and the corporation gets the details of the claim--- It is not the wish of the Government, our Ministry or the corporation to deny any person what is due to him or her. We are going to settle claims. But we must reiterate that the claims must be well founded. We must get all the details that we require to settle such claims."
