"content": "Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I am happy to rise to support this Bill and thank my Departmental Committee on Justice and Legal Affairs for taking time to work through a very important Bill. The role of political parties in any establishment cannot be gainsaid. Through political parties, ideas and policies are debated and people get expression into the political affairs of a country. The way these political parties work should concern everybody else in the country. Thanks to my colleague, Hon. Ababu, these are now statutory offices because they are there constitutionally and we are funding them using public money, and we must have interest in ensuring that they run not only in a democratic manner but also in a manner that allows Members to express themselves."
