"content": "Hon. Speaker, this court is proposed to be in every sub-county. That is a good thing. I know that maybe there are a few sub-counties that do not have physical facilities but they should not be disadvantaged further because courts can be mobile. Instead of the proposed helicopters, we can facilitate the Judiciary to come up with mobile clinics specifically for purposes of these claims, so that the courts can be nearer to the people. One of the things we are trying to do is to remove the courts from the complainants. If I am going to travel 10, 15, 20 or 30 miles away, I will have to use money for transport. However, the fact that these cases are expected to be concluded within a day or continuously is something we must appreciate. The adjudicator is expected to complete such cases very quickly. It is good to still remind the Judicial Service Commission – because this court is established by the Chief Justice – that the country is still concerned by the manner in which judgements are being made by our courts. We still have judges presiding over their own cases. They continue to sit without any jurisdiction because their time in the Judiciary has expired. They must forthwith stop practising or administering justice until their cases are determined. I hope I did not digress. I support the Bill."
