    "content": "We are talking about the defence Council. We are not talking about the Kenya Army, Kenya Air force and Kenya Navy. Let me also say that this is a very sensitive area. I think even with the past historical events we may have witnessed, we are in the new constitutional era. We should give the benefit of doubt to the new officers who may come to the office, who will constitute the bulk of this Defence Council. They are the people who will be operative. I would like to see a situation, where the Army Commander or the Kenya Air force Commander or the Kenya Navy Commander are justifying their expenses within the Defence Council, rather than coming to seek separately through a different line of Budget, a budget line from this House. One of the best well guarded secrets is the integrity of the defence forces. Even the Pentagon of the United States, when they act jointly, you cannot know whether this is the Navy, Army or Air Force. They are under a joint command. We have largely borrowed some of these Articles from them."
