    "content": "Hon. Members will recall that on Tuesday, 11th October, 2011 following concerns raised by hon. Danson Mungatana on the Floor of the House regarding the published version of the Elections Act, 2011, the Chair directed that considering the circumstances in which the Bills required to be enacted by Parliament before the first anniversary of the promulgation of the Constitution were passed, the Clerk of the National Assembly liaises with the Office of the Attorney-General and other appropriate offices, and scrutinizes all relevant documentation and published Acts to ensure that no other errors are contained in the published Acts. This scrutiny which covered a total of 16 pieces of legislation was to be concluded and results reported to the Speaker within 14 days from that date. Hon. Members, the Office of the Clerk, in liaison with that of the Attorney- General, has undertaken and concluded the audit of the Acts and submitted a report to my Office. The Report indicates that the audit revealed a number of formal errors of a typographical nature and further proposes that these errors be rectified through the mechanism provided for in the Revision of the Laws Act, Cap. 1 of the Laws of Kenya. Having considered the Report, I have initiated correspondence with the Office of the Attorney-General requesting that Office to give consideration to the need to invoke the powers under the Revision of the Laws Act to give effect to the necessary corrections to these Acts. Thank you."
