"content": "Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I rise to support the Minister in his attempt to reduce the publication period for this Bill. We have been here for almost eight months and we have transacted very little business. These are special times, and I want to plead with my colleagues and my friend, Mr. Ethuro, that we do not mean bad. We canvassed this issue in the House Business Committee (HBC). We thought that Kenyans desire changes in the Judiciary. We promised them this. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, Mr. Ethuro was the one who was in the forefront of campaigns for the new Constitution. Therefore, I want to plead with him that it may look like the Executive has delayed Bills, and that is true. However, we are trying to catch up with time, so that we do not let down Kenyans. Please, I plead with you, let us not be here next week, earn allowances and not have business! I beg you, Mr. Ethuro. Mr. Mbadi, I beg you. I beg you, Mr. Ruto. I beg to support."
