    "content": "I think it is true that we need these courts. They are needed in every county. My good friend, hon. Orengo, has spoken very eloquently and also my friend, hon. Michuki, with regard to the jurisdiction of this court. Also there is need for what is being called reasonable and equitable access to the services of this court in every county. We only came back yesterday from Lamu. We are supposed to go to Nyatike and Trans Nzoia. We have been to Kirinyaga, Bungoma, Kwale, Embu and Uasin Gishu. There are issues right across the country. I trust tomorrow I will be in a position to table the amendments as talked about by hon. Orengo, so that the House can be aware of them. They are fairly minor changes. This is a very good Bill. We commend the Cabinet for that. It is quite obvious that a lot of very professional work has gone in. I do not want to sit down without paying tribute to those that at very short notice joined us yesterday after Parliament approved, maybe a decision that we go through these Bills. I call at about 4.00 o’clock different institutions. Today, we were privileged to have the Law Society of Kenya for three hours, Kenya Land Alliance, Kenya Private Sector Alliance, FIDA, Kenya Chamber of Commerce and Industry and Kenya Miners Co- operative Society. We started from 10.00 a.m. until 1.00 p.m. going through the amendments of this Bill. I am very grateful to these institutions. The Chair of LSK and the secretary were there. I think that is just symbolic of the commitment of our people to make sure that the enabling legislation is actually in place."
