    "content": "Thank you, hon. Deputy Speaker. I am also happy to support the Fair Administrative Action Bill of 2015, which is derived from Article 47 of the Constitution. We are debating this Bill in the realisation and knowledge that Government services are really required by all Kenyans. All Kenyans are entitled to Government services. The language in Article 47 is extremely inspiring to our country. It provides that fair administration has to be expeditious, efficient, lawful, reasonable and procedurally fair. There is what we are seeking to comply with in passing the Fair Administrative Action Bill. There are many services that Kenyans require. I have in mind registration of companies as well as issuance of birth certificates, national identity cards and passports. All of these are matters, which if done expeditiously, efficiently, lawfully, in a reasonable manner and procedurally fair, things would get much easier for many Kenyans, who need services from the Government. Hon. Deputy Speaker, as you see in the second part of Article 47, if you are adversely affected by any Government action, you have a right to get written reasons. We have not always been given reasons. In fact, in our country, you hardly get to know 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."
