    "content": "Hon. Speaker, we are not saying that there could not be a problem. Yes, there could be a problem; but the right way to go is not to look at Parliament like a fun animal that you cannot discuss with. The Constitution mandates the CIC to work with Parliament. Therefore, that is my concern and I think the CIOC needs to have a session or a sitting with Mr. Nyachae because this is a Commission that was created by the people of Kenya to help in the implementation of the Constitution. It should not impede the implementation of the same. They can engage, talk and discuss and then we can have a report from that Committee tabled in this House so that we consider it. It should not be seen that Parliament is only out for self preservation. There is nothing to preserve. Parliament is already preserved. So long as you are going to tax people, you will have the National Assembly because there is no taxation without representation. Therefore, there is really nothing we are protecting."
