    "content": "Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, first I want to thank the able membership of the Committee under the leadership of hon. (Ms.) Abdalla. Secondly, I also want to thank the Jubilee Executive Arm for bringing this Bill. As hon. Ganya said, this was a law that was enacted during the colonial time. So, we are yet to get Independence. Today, the mining sector has got its independence. Finally, this is an indication that the National Assembly of the Republic of Kenya, the Eleventh Parliament, can stay very late and work for the people that they represent. Those out there who say that parliamentarians do not work can see that the Members have been sitting here since 3.00 p.m. this afternoon. I want to thank the Committee and the leadership. The Bill that came from Government, ideally through public participation, each and every Clause, or most of it; 90 per cent, has been amended. That is a true function of Parliament. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor."
