"content": "Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. It is Sitswila Amos Wako, in that order. First of all, I welcome the boys from Medina Schools. The house which I have built is called Medina House. I love the name “Medina.” Therefore, you are in a school with a very good name. It is now up to you to live up to the good name of Medina; a place where I believe Prophet Mohammed went at some stage in his pilgrimages. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, we are discussing a very important Bill. It was one of the first Bills to be passed as soon as we got Independence. This is Chapter 99 of the Laws of Kenya. It was passed in 1963. It is no wonder that it had provisions to ensure utmost respect towards the national flag and emblems. At that time, we had just become a new State and maybe people had not recognised the importance of the flag. Therefore, the Act has served its purpose. Kenyans today know the importance of the national flag and The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate."
