    "content": "Thank you, Hon. Speaker for this opportunity. I am a very faithful Member of the Departmental Committee on Justice and Legal Affairs and I attend almost all its meetings, including the one that dealt with this issue. My father was sick in hospital here in Nairobi and I told my Chairman that I would leave early. The IEBC came and made a presentation. The following day, we came to this House with amendments as agreed by the Committee. They were amendments on what we had discussed in the Committee. The one that is here is not among them because we never discussed it. That is why it was not in the original amendments, which were moved by my able Chairman, Hon. Chepkong’a. You need to ask him: If this amendment was so fundamental, why did it miss in the amendments that he brought that day? That is the issue. If this amendment was very fundamental, why was it not on the amendments that were brought on this Bill? The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor."
