Kwenya Thuku","speaker":null,"content":" Hon. Temporary Chairman, thank you for that observation. This is one of those very good amendments. We need to make sure there are no grey areas. There are situations where an organisation is succeeded, maybe by the passage of a statute, and whoever had an interest in the defunct institution is left vulnerable. But this amendment has made sure that it is watertight. All the authorisations and permits that may have been done by the previous body, which is the NCPD, are carried over without a sunset clause, so that we do not end up saying that after 10 years, something cannot be effected. Anything that was effected by the former council will be taken over by the successor council."},{"id":1586670,"url":"http://info.mzalendo.com/api/v0.1/hansard/entries/1586670/?format=json","text_counter":1077,"type":"speech","speaker_name":"Hon.

They are not only giving room for continuity, but they are also very protective, so that we are not leaving room for any ambiguity should there be any complaints or issues that involve the law. I commend the Committee for coming up with these transitional amendments."}]}
