The Bill is mine and I want to indulge the House, through the Chairman of the Committee of the whole House, that we extend the six hours to 12 hours. This is for the simple reason that the next of kin could be far and might not reach on time. So, six hours is limiting. When one of your own dies in a prison in Nyanza or Western Kenya and you come from North Eastern, or vice versa, it will take time.
