"content": "Just to support you on that Hon. Speaker, sometimes, people do not know or ignore what the powers and duties of Parliament are. This is unfortunate under our new Constitution, but I am sure they are well advised. Hon. Speaker, on the Order Paper before the House, there is the Statute Law (Miscellaneous Amendments) Bill sponsored by the Leader of the Majority Party. I have in my possession a letter from the Cabinet Secretary (CS) for Information, Communication and Technology. I have looked at the amendments and a lot of them look unconstitutional. They require some consultations within the Executive so that we do not consider them. The letter from Mr. Fred Matiang’i to the Attorney-General (AG) says the amendments proposed in this Bill are not the Ministry’s amendments. That is because the Ministry has not been consulted. These amendments are fundamental in nature."
