    "content": "Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, first, this was not an afterthought. On 31st October, 2011, which was prior to the hon. Member for Kisumu Town West asking this Question, there was a notice to all kiosks and hotel owners from the Municipal Council of Kisumu. The municipal council gave a seven-day notice to demolish the structures. However, as you are aware, there are procedural processes and, obviously, the council meeting, as the hon. Member has rightly stated, was after the Question had been tabled. I do not necessarily believe the sequence because, already, the process had been initiated with the notice. Therefore, the process was not as a result of the Question. Secondly, for any building to be inspected, you have to pay a fee. So, by paying a fee, it does not necessarily mean that it will be approved or rejected. As such, even if you went ahead and put up an illegal structure somewhere and you went and paid a fee, it does not necessarily mean that there is a contractual obligation by the council to honour it."
