    "content": "Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, I rise to support the amendment. I think this Copyright Bill together with such other Bills and words have been supported by people outside this country. The fact of the issue is that we have done a lot of research on copyright and other things. When the Copyright Bill comes then, perhaps, this can be moved out. However, at this moment in time, the Ministry of Finance is best placed to make sure that there are no violations by certain people who just want to go and arrest on the pretext of copyrights. Many of the people who do that are actually part and parcel of the Kenya Revenue Authority (KRA) and others. Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, I actually oppose what the Minister is saying and I am sorry that the former Minister seems to have taken the same route of bowing to pressure and not making sure that copyright violations are properly dealt with. I am sorry we cannot allow that. Thank you."
