    "content": "Delay in the discharge of justice is another issue which needs to be addressed by the Supreme Court. I note that we are going to establish the Office of the Registrar in the Judiciary. The Registrar will be expected to be competent. He should be a person of impeccable character. He will also be expected to be the custodian of critical court documents. Fake title deeds have been used in our courts of law to secure the release of criminals. Therefore, I hope that this new office will address that malpractice. Unfair rulings have been made in our courts of law. Even very important exhibits have disappeared. Corrupt court officials have also tainted the image of the Judiciary. Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, I wish to encourage the Minister to make sure that those constituencies or areas that have been starved of court justice be given court facilities in the new dispensation. Lari in particular should also be given that facility. Court cases held under trees in modern Kenya must not be tolerated. We hope that this will be a new era in the way we will be discharging justice in this country. I, therefore, support the nomination process by the Judicial Service Commission (JSC)."
