    "content": "John Bolton, the American. It says:- “Dear, Mr. Secretary-General. This is to inform you that, in connection to the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court adopted on 17th July,1998, the United States does not intend to become a party to the treaty. Accordingly, the United States has no legal obligation arising from its signature on December, 31st 2000. The United States requests that its intentions not to become a party, as expressed in this letter be reflected in the depository status list relating to the Treaty.” The letter is signed by Mr. John Bolton. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I was just reading and no one has been asked to table the rest. Mine is just to read. I also want to make it clear that the intention of my Motion is to deal with the International Crimes Act which was passed by this House, and there was an annex to the schedule of the Rome Statute. It had the effect of domesticating that Statute. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, this House definitely has the power to repeal its Act. I do not understand why lawyers who understand these things want to become wordy and confuse the House and Kenyans in general by referring to some sections of this Constitution."
