(Dr) Otiende Amollo","speaker":null,"content":" No, it is not this particular stage. You know, Clause 42B is intended to cure a problem created by the Bill itself. However, it seeks to cure it in an unconstitutional manner. Once you have bought property, it becomes yours and you immediately fall under Article 40 of the Constitution. Article 40 of the Constitution is so clear on protection of property. You can buy property on your own or in community with others. Article 40(2) says: “Parliament shall not enact a law that permits the State or any person- (b) to limit, or in any way restrict the enjoyment of any right under this Article on the basis of any of the grounds specified or contemplated in Article 27 (4).” Your right to property includes you keeping and selling it. Article 40 directs Parliament not to enact such a legislation and Clause 42B is purporting to do the very thing now. That is outrageous."},{"id":1392576,"url":"http://info.mzalendo.com/api/v0.1/hansard/entries/1392576/?format=json","text_counter":488,"type":"speech","speaker_name":"Hon.

(Dr) Ojiambo Oundo","speaker":null,"content":" Hon. Temporary Chairman, this is an absurdity of the whole process. Honestly speaking, how can somebody in their right sense insert this particular clause? In the reminiscent days of the Commission on Lands, you could not sell or charge a property until you had the consent of the Commissioner of Lands. That was a licence that was given to you under the Government Lands Act which has long been abolished. We are suggesting that a person who will get affordable housing will never have a chance to upgrade to another housing. For one to go to another housing, he must dispose the first house in an open market and move to a higher level. What is happening? I just do not understand!"},{"id":1392578,"url":"http://info.mzalendo.com/api/v0.1/hansard/entries/1392578/?format=json","text_counter":490,"type":"speech","speaker_name":"Hon.
