    "content": "Hon. Speaker, you know my senior is very forceful and dare I say vociferous on presentation of his legislative proposal. This is a matter that we have discussed with Hon. Aluoch a number of times. It is a matter that is pending in the Committee. It has been there since 2014, I believe. We had agreed that we will invite the Attorney-General to appear before the Committee so that he can canvass those issues. A number of occasions when we have made an attempt to do so, the Attorney-General was outside the country. I undertake, since he is a Member of the Committee, to deal with it bilaterally between him and myself. I am sure we will conclude this matter. We belong to the same profession. I see no fight in this. This is not a major issue although it is a major issue to him. His Bill has major repercussions to the economy of this country. So, that is the reason we are taking a little bit of time because he is seeking to remove the protection on attachment of Government properties on civil debts judgements. Those are issue the Attorney-General said he would like to deal with personally. I am sure Hon. Aluoch as a lawyer knows it. He also admits that we need to agree on the way forward."
