(ii) The provisions of the Chiefs Act, Cap.28 be retained with necessary amendments to accord with the Constitution as part of the laws of Kenya to complement the Bill proposed to address national administration and co-ordination and other related purposes. (iii) That in the restructuring of the Provincial Administration the positions of assistant chief, chief and District Officer, be retained as part of the structures of the national administration to assist in the co-ordination of functions of the national Government and related functions. The position of village elders be institutionalized to be part of the administration. (iv) That should the Government fail to publish a Bill addressing the said matters in good time, Parliament uses other appropriate means at its disposal to legislate on the matters as sought by the petitioners. Your petitioners will ever pray, Mr. Speaker.” The petition is signed by the petitioners. Mr. Speaker, Sir, the names of the petitioners, their national identity card numbers, signatures and other details are herewith attached. The assistant chiefs are key in the administration of justice in this country. They help solve broken marriages, administration of estates, land disputes and so on. They are the face of Government at the grassroots level. I beg to table this petition."
