    "content": "Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, having said that, it is really not our liking that we are doing this. We are forced into the circumstance and the National Assembly cannot have a way out. The Commissions, the Attorney-General’s Chambers and the Ministries concerned really ought to be ashamed of themselves because it is very clear in the law that six months to the elections, we should have had this approved. The House is of the view that it requires about eight weeks to pass a Bill and a number of weeks to approve Rules and Regulations. It is, therefore, incumbent upon those institutions to have done their bit, so that those Regulations are with us. As I speak now, we have four sets of regulations and we did not have time to approve them. We were forced to do this. Mr. Speaker graciously called for a Kamukunji yesterday and it is at that point that we agreed to go under this procedure. That is why we have, under Clause 2 of the proposed Bill, that Section 109 of the principal Act is amended by deleting the word “six” appearing in subsection 3 and substituting therefor the word “four.”"
