    "content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I can see where the hon. Member is coming from. If he wanted the complaint to be based on the Dominion investment in Yala Swamp, I would be glad to respond to that. I could further say that more than 50 per cent of the impediment to fast movement of the investment in Yala Swamp has had something to do with local politics and non- governmental organisations. It had nothing to do with Government Ministries. Secondly, the hon. Member is talking about pending licences. It is bad cases like this one which made us seek to change the law through this House, to allow investors to go to the Kenya Investment Authority and be given within 21 days investment certificates, and not apply for other licences. Within 12 months the Government gives them all the licences required. This is the future that we are supposed to go to, unlike the past where one would spend four years trying to bribe officers to get licences."
