Part X deals with that. We are even changing Rural Electrification Authority (REA). How do we protect assets, liabilities, staff and all that? Those are the transitional clauses. There are new entities we are creating such as the Energy and Petroleum Tribunal. Part X is just dealing the repeals of the Energy Act No.12 of 2006 and the Geothermal Resource No. 12 of 1982. Of course, it will do a lot of savings and provide transitional provisions.

Members’ amendment so that by the time we are sending it to the Senate, we will have a better piece of legislation. When we were publishing this Bill, we took into consideration all the amendments of the 11th Parliament, individual Members, the committee and the reservation which were made by the President. All of them are here. I am sure what we will add or subtract will be minor.

10 Apr 2018 in National Assembly:
Hon. Speaker, I totally agree with the Vice-Chair, but I think the extension he is seeking is not fair to the House and even the House Business Committee (HBC). We will have a long recess in May and so we are only around during this month according to the calendar of the House. I want the Vice-Chair, representing the Chair to at least ask for 10 days extension. Many Bills will be coming and if the House gives you 21 days, you may ask for another extension. Ultimately, the 11th Parliament has gone done in history and particularly the National ...

midnight oil in their committees. They have competent and efficient staff and we want Bills ready according to the time stipulated in Standing Orders. I really want the Vice-Chair to amend his request from 21 days to 10 days because the Computer and Cybercrimes Bill, which his Committee is dealing with, is ready. The Chair of the Committee is out of the country and it can only be considered next week. Further, if a chair is away, let the vice-chairs or Members of that committee work. Today we are going to deal with the Irrigation Bill and the Vice-Chair will ...

Hon. Speaker, I beg to move that the Irrigation Bill 2017 be now read a Second Time. The agriculture sector contributes about 25 per cent of Kenya’s Gross Domestic Product (GDP) and a further 27 per cent through the manufacturing, distribution and service sectors. This accounts for about 65 per cent of this country’s total export earnings. This sector employs over 80 per cent of the Kenya’s rural workforce and provides for more than 18 per cent of formal employment. In Vision 2030, agriculture is recognised and is given a lot of significance towards achieving that vision. The vision anticipates ...
