    "content": "Having said that, I want to take this opportunity to move this Bill. In Part I, the preliminary, we have defined terms. Maybe before I say this, we have an Cap.6 of the Laws of Kenya called the “Powers and Privileges Act” of the National Assembly. In essence, that Act has become obsolete or redundant after the promulgation of the new Constitution, because it is anchored on a unicameral House. We have a bicameral House, which means we have two Houses. Therefore, that Act was to be amended after the promulgation of the new Constitution. Since this did not happen, this is the time when God has willed. I urge all Members - I know at times Members do not have time – to, please, get a copy of this Bill. This is about you as a legislator. Get a copy of this Bill, analyse it, interrogate it and look at the provisions and, where possible--- Where you think the Commission may not have captured certain provisions that you understand as a Member of Parliament, or where we might have gone overboard, please, make your informed suggestions at the right time."
