    "content": "I want to touch a little bit about the penalty clause. That is towards the end of the Bill, in Clause 48, where, for example, it says that a person who – then it gives the various misdemeanours that might happen - commits an offence and is liable on conviction to a fine not exceeding Kshs5 million. Not exceeding Kshs5 million can be Kshs1. Not exceeding Kshs5 million or to imprisonment or a term not exceeding two years or both. This is too open. I think Kshs5 million on the upper end is what is intended, but the lower end needs to be clearly put because that fine can be Kshs1 because anything less than Kshs5 million can also be Khs1. In Clause 37 also, we establish the County Governments Retirement Scheme Fund and it talks about the money, the contributions for the sponsor; where the money will be coming from, money that may be invested or accrued, fees and charges authorised by the Board. The sources of the funds are also well discussed."
