    "content": "Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I am happy to inform Hon. Cecilia Ngetich that those two key provisions she is talking about on how to preserve a crime scene and collection of forensic evidence are well covered in the Bill in Section 29. Also, the different roles of the police, on how to secure a place until the Coroners Service comes to do their part are covered in the Bill. So, there will be good teamwork on who is supposed to do what and it is covered in the Bill and also, public awareness on how not to compromise investigations. The Bill is very specific that it is a crime to interfere with the scene of a death investigation. In Clause 39 of the Bill, the police themselves cannot interfere and if they do that, that crime is highly punishable. I think those concerns are important and definitely, the public will need to be taught how to handle situations where an unnatural death has occurred."
