    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. Listening to what my colleagues have made by way of contribution, I realize indeed that two heads are better than one. There are many things which were never in my mind when I was making this draft, but after listening to colleagues, they have deepened it and, therefore, made it even more mandatory for me to be prepared when we go into the Third Reading of this Bill, to try and accommodate the positive contributions that they have made. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the first thing I would like to deal with, having thanked the Members for their support on the Bill, is the issue of stakeholders’ participation or consultations. I want to beg my senior, Sen. G.G. Kariuki, Sen. ole Ndiema and my sister, Sen. Liz Chelule, that, indeed, this matter is not coming before the Republic for the first time this afternoon. It came before the country after we went through the First Reading. The Bill was then committed to the Departmental Committee, in this case the Departmental Committee on Legal Affairs and Human Rights. This is in accordance with the provisions of Standing Order No.130, which deals with committal of Bills to committees and to allow for public participation."
