    "content": "Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I want to give a small insight on what we are discussing. On Sub-clause (b), where we are talking of injury occasioning permanent disability, we may not amend this one now, but at the end of the day this might be an area you can even compensate more than death. This is a person who might lead his or her life without a source of income. If the process would allow me, I would have said up to Kshs5 million in this. Remember we are paying the parents of a child who has been killed – and I am not underrating the value of a child. A person who loses both hands and legs, we pay them Kshs3 million and then we let them live for the rest of their life. Recently, we passed the law of motor vehicle insurance in third party risks. It has a schedule of injuries, say, if you lose a finger, eyesight and so on. I would have suggested that we relate compensation to that schedule. This is because it makes it easy for determination of the amount to be compensated."
