    "content": "Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I thank the Minister for that Ministerial Statement. Of course, he said that there are two Commissioners who resigned, but he has not given us their names. Perhaps he is going to give us those names. What I want to raise is a point of fact; that the TJRC was established to investigate historical injustices, as he has just said, and that the Government is serious in terms of getting to the bottom of these issues, so that the country can truly reconcile. I want the Minister to know that as long as the Government does not do away with The Indemnity Bill, which this House passed and the Government took custody of--- That goes against the current Constitution. It goes against the Bill of Rights. It also goes against the old Constitution. The people of northern Kenya will not be happy, and they will not reconcile with this country unless the Indemnity Act is completely removed from our statute books. Why has the Government refused to repeal this very “important” Act, which goes to the root of what the TJRC is expected to investigate?"
