"content": "Hon. Members, the Kenya National Commission on Human Rights (KNCHR) (Amendment) Bill (National Assembly Bill No.1 of 2020) was read the First Time on 27th February 2020. Standing Order No. 127(1) provides that a Bill, having been read a First Time, shall stand committed to the relevant departmental committee without Question put. Despite the said provisions, Standing Order No. 127(6)(a) provides that the Speaker may direct that a particular Bill be committed to such other committee as the Speaker may determine. Hon. Members, I have since received a request to determine the suitable committee to consider the KNCHR (Amendment) Bill (National Assembly Bill No.1 of 2020). The Bill seeks to amend the KNCHR Bill No.14 of 2011 in order to merge the KNCHR and the National Gender and Equality Commission (NGEC). Part 5 of Chapter 5 of the Constitution, particularly Article 59 (4) provides as hereunder: “Parliament shall enact legislation to give effect to this part, and any such legislation may restructure the commission into two or more separate commissions.” 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."

"content": "This particular Bill is published following lessons learnt and challenges experienced during the implementation of the Constitution. You will recall that the Kenya National Human Rights and Equality Commission established under Part 5 of the Constitution pursuant to the provisions of Article 59(4) was expected to create three independent offices, that is the KNCHR, NGEC and the Commission on Administrative Justice (CAJ). As you are aware, the Constitutional Implementation Oversight Committee established under the Sixth Schedule to the Constitution is responsible for overseeing the implementation of the Constitution. Given this background, the Constitutional Implementation Oversight Committee will be valuable in reviewing the lessons so far learned in the journey to implement the Constitution. I, therefore, direct that the Bill stands committed to the Constitutional Implementation Oversight Committee to discharge the functions specified under Standing Order No.127(3) and Section 3(a) relating to public participation. It is so directed. Hon. Members, I notice that there are some interventions. Let us have the Leader of the Majority Party."

Speaker, on behalf of my family, myself and the people of Garissa Township, I take this opportunity to send my sincere condolences - despite the Leader of the Minority Party and other Members representing you and the House yesterday at the funeral of our departed colleague, Hon. Suleiman Dori. He has joined the list of our colleagues in this Session who went to live with the Almighty God, namely Hon. Nyenze, Hon. Ken Okoth and Hon. (Ms.) Grace Kipchoim. Hon. Suleiman was a very good leader. One thing I remember about him was that he used to agitate for the people of Msambweni and Kwale in general, mainly on land issues, the titanium mining issues and community conflicts. That is the route each one of us is headed to. The Holy Quran says all lives will taste death. It is something imminent. We do not know when and how it will come. As colleagues, there is something that we usually do for the families of our departed colleagues. The Leader of the Minority Party and I will write a joint letter to the Clerk to collect funds. You will look for a date when we can see the family as a House under your leadership. My condolences to the people of Kwale. He had a young family. He had two children aged 6 and 4 years old. That is a very young family. We pray that the family and the people of Msambweni get strength during this difficult moment."

We got news of Mr. Dori’s death very early in the morning at around 6 a.m. In fact, it is my party leader who called to tell me that we had lost our Member, Hon. Dori.

"content": "immediately reached out to you. As a party, it is a great loss to us. I register our sympathies with the people of Msambweni who have lost their committed leader. The Leader of the Majority Party and a good number of Members managed to attend his funeral. Given the time it took between Dori’s death and his burial, it was amazing to see a large number of MPs from across the country who made sure that they were there and struggled to reach there. That showed and demonstrated that Dori was a friend of many. There was a period of time when our Party disagreed with the late Hon. Dori. This is a Member of our Party who, even after disagreeing with the Party, came and consulted with us and followed due process. Later, the Party pardoned him and he was forgiven. We did that procedurally through the National Executive Committee of the Party and as a party that respects rules and procedures. We hope and pray that the people of Msambweni will have peace and even as they seek a replacement for Hon. Suleiman Dori, they will do it in peace and get a good person who will fit in his shoes."
