"content": "Hon. Members, I believe the Clerk has heard the pleas of the Members. I want to confirm what Hon. Chris Wamalwa has just said. Indeed, the real business of legislation is what you do in the Committee of the whole House. Because almost all of you looked for votes others got nominated to come to the House, the key functions of any legislature is to legislate, represent and oversee. In this case, you are doing the first. Indeed, I would expect that this should be a full House. As you rightly stated, this particular Bill has got very many statutes that it proposes to make amendments to, some of which are to be aligned with certain realities brought about by the new Constitution and others to just update. Indeed, I must commend those Members like I saw last evening; who stayed on until 7.00 p.m. I know that the last time we were dealing with the Health Laws (Amendment) Bill, a few Members sat up to 9.30 p.m. That is commendable. I know that even those who were not present must have gone home during the short recess to say we passed a very serious law. If you asked them which particular clause they passed, they would say."
