"content": "The only person who beat him was Sen. Fatuma Dullo, who is very popular there amongst the prisoners. This is because of the work she did while at the Kenya Human Rights Commission (KHRC), particularly in fighting for the rights of prisoners. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I have consulted the Minority Leader because there were many concerns that were raised yesterday and the day before when we were debating this Bill. Although it would not have made a big difference if we voted for it today or voted next week, I have acceded to the Senior Counsel’s request that we can have the vote next week. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I have to mention that all of us have amendments across the board. Only the Senate will have the benefit to actualise those amendments if we vote for the Second Reading, so that we can go to Committee Stage. So, either way, we will still have to vote for it. It will now be determined at the Committee Stage, whether the Senate agrees with the Bill or not. Once we make the amendments at the Committee Stage, I believe it will also determine when the National Assembly will agree with our amendments or we will have to go for Division. I have absolutely no problem postponing. We have agreed that with your permission, we can have it voted on, on Wednesday. We are also trying through my office and that of the Speaker, to organise for a breakfast meeting like the one we had with the other Bills in Nairobi City County up to mid-morning, to go through the amendments."
