    "content": "Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. This amendment is scandalous and serious. We cannot accept it. I am happy that it has been proposed to be deleted. How do you make a person commit a crime by publishing parliamentary reports? How? We represent the people of Kenya. We cannot have the cake and eat it. If you chose to be a public servant or a Member of Parliament and Parliament itself and its committees, you must be ready for public scrutiny. This clause talks about defamatory reports of Parliament, its committees and proceedings. Parliament is an institution that represents the people unlike the Executive. It is in Parliament where we must have openness, accountability, transparency and everything that we do must be open to public scrutiny including the media. What some of us go through in the social media---We are happy and we want to thank those who say bad things about us because we chose to be leaders and public servants. If you do not want to be criticised, you can only survive if you stick with your wife and children in your house and nobody will say anything about you. But if you become a Member of County Assembly (MCA) or public servant, be ready for the consequences. I support the deletion."
