    "content": " Thank you very much, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for giving me this opportunity. First and foremost, I want to give the background of Statute Law (Miscellaneous Amendments) Bills. These are Bills which are kind of insignificant as per their objects. Historically, at times people sneak in some amendments which are significant, and this negates the principle of miscellaneous amendments. Going through this Bill, I find that there are some amendments which meet the threshold and some which are significant and, therefore, should not have appeared in this Bill. First, I salute Hon. Munyaka. The amendments to introduce the word ‘university’ in the Tourism Bill are actually minor. Traditionally, tourism-related training has been offered at certificate and diploma level. However, universities have started offering new courses based on the market. I am aware that Moi University is offering hospitality and tourism courses. Other university colleges are also doing the same. So, these particular amendments are miscellaneous. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposes only. Acertified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor."
