If you could allow me to just make a few comments. First, I would like to thank this Kenyan who is really thinking about how to make sure that the two-thirds rule is adhered to within the Constitution. We are pooling efforts together from different formulas and formulations, so that we can actually find a way forward. A technical group from the Gender and Equality Commission that has been working on this has made quite a lot of progress in terms of making a determination. The idea that the petitioner has given will be taken into consideration, because this is really a consultative process. It has been going on for the last three months and we are putting in a lot of effort, even from other hon. Members who have also come up with various propositions. Mr. Speaker, Sir, I support this petition and assure him that we will find a way to ensure that we make this a constitutional dispensation that will be adhered to. Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir."}
