"content": "Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, I support the Committee Chair. I want to tell Hon. Wamalwa that he is not the teacher of all of us. Every Member of Parliament has this Bill. If you check at the back of the Bill, you will note that it shows the areas in the KDF Act being amended. If Hon. Kaluma wants to read, Hon. Wamalwa cannot be his tutor. The amendment that the Committee has rejected sought to amend Section 4 which states that if Parliament is not in session, deployment can take place. I support that because even if we are not in session, Parliament can be called to hold a Special Sitting. Therefore, approval must be sought. The oversight role played by Parliament, more so the National Assembly cannot be denied. Hon. Chairman, I thought you were not going to support me on this, but I know this one will give you more bonga points. The oversight role of Parliament must be respected the way we respect the oversight role of the President. I support."
