Temporary Deputy Speaker, this country continues in its quest to ensure we have good governance to have a strong national identity, effective representation that will provide good leadership, equitable allocation of resources and opportunities, good governance and sustainable development in this country. That has been the key guiding principles that the Jubilee Government has continued to pursue since the President spoke to this House last year. The Government has continued to pursue a very enlightened policy with regard to national prosecution policy that provides guidelines on prosecution through enshrining that the rights of arrested persons are safeguarded and accorded the right to fair hearing in accordance with Articles 49 and 50 of the Constitution. Towards this end, this House passed the Fair Administrative Action Bill 2014 as required under Article 47 of the Constitution. That Bill ensures that the rights of the people are honoured. It ensures that State officers are fair and expeditious in the manner in which they make decisions. This is to ensure that it promotes expeditiousness, reasonableness, and procedural fairness with regard to administrative actions that these State officers are required to take from time to time.
