    "content": "Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, just a few minutes ago, you stated that these are extra ordinary times. Extra ordinary times require extra ordinary leadership. We have been debating this matter time and again. Indeed, we had a Kamukunji in this Chamber a couple of weeks ago and subsequently, had a discussion with the Committee on Justice and Legal Affairs. In this Report, we submitted very clearly areas where we felt really needed to be addressed by the Commission to be set up. As it is, if we are not going to amend this Report as proposed and define the meaning of sparsely populated and densely populated areas, this will have a negative effect on those problems that we saw raised. We clearly and elaborately submitted to the Committee on Justice and Legal Affairs that the Report they had from the Ligale Commission overlooked many factors which were stated clearly in the Constitution. They concentrated on the population quota formula alone. If you have to consider the population quota alone, then this population must be acceptable to all. It must be accurate. If it is not, then it is not doing justice to those areas which are underrepresented."
