    "content": "A conducive environment for the private sector is how the judicial system in a country like Kenya works. If it works well, then they are willing to put in their money, knowing that in the event of a challenge they have a fall back plan, which is the law. That is the only way to address the concerns about commercial and social conflicts, or whichever nature of conflicts that there will be. This Bill will address them. This Bill will empower Magistrates’ Courts to expand their jurisdiction, so that they can handle more sophisticated cases, and we will not end up taking everything to the Supreme Court and the Court of Appeal. Some things can be addressed in lower courts to decongest senior courts in the country."
