Hon. Speaker, I think he should be telling us what is ailing the coastal region because the things that are happening there need more sober heads, especially when it comes to debating that matter.

I was saying that we do not need entourages. We do not need senior Government officers to actually have all this largesse around them. Each Member of Parliament has three workers; a personal assistant, driver and secretary. We must all learn from the humble lives of the hon. Members of this House.

With those remarks, I beg to support the Supplementary Appropriation Bill.

Much obliged, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. The Governor for Nairobi started work by slapping an honourable Member of this House. He has now slapped the entire City of Nairobi. Hon. Members who have spoken before me have indicated that they were unable to reach this House in good time. Personally, I had a very rough experience because last night I decided to drive myself and today as I was coming to this House I realized that there was no way I could access the town and I took a turn which was not correct in so far as the traffic ...

Yes, today it is Kandara. I think a correction was made. Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. The intervention is that I want to support the position taken by Millie Odhiambo, the hon. Member for Mbita. I think we should not encourage shortening of the time for debate but we should encourage those who have the tendency of repeating whatever they have to say to say less because they have exhausted their points. However, I think we should leave the time allocated for this particular Bill. I also suspect that there may not be very many people who want to ...

Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, may I just confirm that I rank number P105/1454. For sure, all those who have spoken, including hon. Millie Odhiambo, rank after that number.

I want to start with the concerns that I have. My daughter was admitted to the Bar on 23rd January, 2013. I was walking along with her as she was at the Kenya School of Law (KSL). There are concerns raised by Members in respect of fees. I suffered that bit of experience. You can imagine. If I was feeling the pinch, what about ordinary Kenyans? The LSK needs to pick up that issue very quickly, if we are going to access justice. I believe that the number of lawyers that we have in this country is still not sufficient, ...

and accounts of the Society. That was really not nice. We would like to see this team that has been put in the office--- I am happy with a lot of the officials who were elected. Some of the results may have been impacted positively by decisions or resolutions of this House. The officials need to rethink about the regulations that shall guide cleaner campaigns prior to elections. Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I am also very happy with the provisions on the secretariat and how a secretary is put in office and how the secretary may be removed from office. ...
