"content": "Members have been explained to but I know some of us who were not there when the Chair was moving the Bill are still asking why are we are taking this jurisdiction so up. This is the easiest way to do away with the backlogs that we have in the court system across the country. We have seen Chief Magistrates being appointed judges. They do a very good job. The question we are asking is: “How does it help to have, for instance, a High Court in Homa Bay which is not able to do all that needs to be done yet we have subordinate courts which have the same capacity and training in law doing very little down there?” So, wherever the courts are and even where we do not have High Courts across the country, we are going to have a situation where access to justice is going to be made easy and more available to all Kenyans."
