    "content": "many of the issues that confronted us. We have come long away enough to make a determination of what is good for our country. Between us we were talking very honestly and candidly to our leadership, either in the case of CORD or on his case with the President and the Deputy President. There were times when we also gave advice on how to resolve the differences that were before us. This was possible because the history of Sen. Kiraitu Murungi in the struggle to attain a new constitutional order in Kenya is very well known. However, I will not dwell on it at length because it is there in the annals of our history. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, we had a membership of very senior Members from the Senate and the National Assembly in our Committee. We had Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale who is here and others. They are people who I did not think that anybody would even dare approach them and compromise them in any form or shape. We all worked as a team on the report that now is before the House. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I look forward to the Senate passing this Motion. I know if this Motion is passed in both Houses, there will be a lot of work to be done on the Bills. Then there is the execution of the provisions of the two Bills, particularly the Election’s Laws Amendment Bill which will require to put the new structures that we have put in place or we have suggested should be put in place by 30th September, 2016. When the commission starts working within 30 days, there must be an audit and after that audit the register has to be dealt with. I know that is achievable because even in 2012 we had a new register. Within a space of a month, the commission was able to come up with a new register. I beg to move and invite my Co-Chair Sen. Murungi to second. Thank you so much."
