    "content": "Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I will repeat. The Statute Law (Miscellaneous Amendments) Bill, 2013 is a practice. It is in keeping with the practice of taking minor amendments which do not merit the publication of a separate Bill and consolidating it in one Bill. So, it is a tradition of the House and it is something that has been happening. It is not something new. Hon. Wanyonyi asked a simple question: Why do you bring these amendments in an amalgamation form and not in one? The answer is that the Statute Law (Miscellaneous Amendments) Bill is in keeping with the practice of taking minor amendments. For instance, under the Kenya Ports Authority Act, Cap.391; the KPA wants to bring on board just the element of the inland waterways port which is not found within its current Act. So, they want that amendment. You cannot create a Bill for that amendment only. I think I have answered."
