"content": "In Clause 2(e) of the Bill, there is the issue of funding which Hon. Otiende Amollo has spoken about. Why meet the cost of elections for only some certain groups of candidates - the special interest groups (SIGs)? If that has to be done using the Political Parties Fund, then we should do it for all candidates in all categories which is not possible and may not be practical. We need to do something about that. The next one is 2(b) that is still on campaign financing. This financing is coming from the Political Parties Fund. We need to agree on that. Do we even need to be contributing monthly payments to those political parties? This is because, as we speak now, all political parties are being funded partly by the members of those political parties. Do we need to do it or we leave it to political parties to receive funds from the Political Parties Fund? I am made to understand that payment for party membership is even optional. In my party, I hear there are members who do not do the check-off system monthly since it is voluntary."
