    "content": "I do not need to say what others have said. When the drafting of the Bill is being done, it is important that better attention be paid to existing legislations and Acts of Parliament, so that we are not seen to be doing things that will increase a lot of administrative work. The question which begs for an answer is: Which is this central point where these Acts or Bills are drafted? Before, we had the Commission for the Implementation of the Constitution (CIC) and Kenya Law Reform Commission. When we interacted with them, they were crying because at times they are involved very late as a matter of formality or not at all. They read Acts that have come from this Parliament which seem to run contra to other existing statutes. They have raised that issue. As the Committee on Implementation, we will look into it and perhaps discuss with the House at a later point."
