    "content": "homes assuming those are the places where the stolen money has been kept. It also provides an explanation that the material relevant to concluding the lifestyle audit is likely to be found in those premises as I had indicated. Madam Temporary Speaker, having gone through this Bill, I remembered a relative of mine from my county of birth which is Busia which is a border county. This relative of mine was a simple clerk in the Deputy County Commissioner’s (DCC’s) office. He was able to change cars very frequently and even married two wives in a very short span of time. Everyone concluded that he must be stealing from the Government since he was working at the DCC’s Office. He was subjected to this haphazard lifestyle audit. They realised that the cars he was changing he had not even bought them. Busia being a border town, very many vehicles pass from Mombasa going to Uganda. He had gotten friendly with these drivers. Every time they came with a good-looking vehicle at the border, he would take a test drive around the town. Of course, when you have a good car in a rural county like Busia, women get attracted. He ended up marring two wives because of the vehicles he would borrow from drivers and taking the vehicles across. Madam Temporary Speaker, there was no order and framework upon which his lifestyle audit would have been done. He suffered great public ridicule when he was very innocent. I welcome such a Bill so that there is order. In this Bill, there is also an appeal system. If you feel like the audit has not been done properly and you have been abused in a certain way, you have a way of seeking redress through the appeal system as recommended in this Bill. This Bill has also outlined the investigative bodies that will be used to conduct this lifestyle audit. We have the EACC and KRA. There are specific commissions or bodies that that officer who is being investigated works for."
