2 Aug 2016 in National Assembly:
Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, there are three sets of amendments to Clause 72. We agree with the Senate on the amendment to replace the word “Director-General” with the words “Chief Conservator of Forests” in sub-clause (1) because it is in line with the changes we have made. We also agree with them in deleting Clause 72(b) and replacing it with “public forests” because it is in line with the amendment of the National Assembly to Clause 30. We reject the insertion of new Sub-clause (1A) which says that the relevant counties will at all times be furnished with pertinent copies ...

2 Aug 2016 in National Assembly:
Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, the Committee rejects the Senate Amendment to Clause 75. As Hon. Gumbo who left said, we should not let the editorial work be done by the Senate. These types of amendment were the usual type of amendments that the Senate would come up with in the past, but we had to reject them. This House did not repeal the Environmental Management and Coordination Act, 1999. We made extensive amendments. The Act remains Environmental Management and Coordination Act, 1999. The amendments of 2015 do not constitute a repeal of the 1999 Act. We reject this amendment on ...

2 Aug 2016 in National Assembly:
Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, the Committee rejects the proposed amendment to Clause 77. This is normal. When we get to the last clauses, this happens. Through this amendment, the Senate is trying to exclude Government settlement schemes from categories of land registered as forest reserves. The amendment should not be adopted as Government settlement schemes do not fall within the description of forest reserves.

Further, Section 134(2) of the Land Act provides that settlement programmes shall include provisions of access to land to squatters and displaced persons. This amendment is misplaced.

2 Aug 2016 in National Assembly:
Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, the Committee rejects the proposed amendment to the Third Schedule. The amendments are going to degazette the gazetted forests. This amendment has no legal effect because the Bill already has a procedure which is Clause 34 on how to degazette gazetted forests. I urge the House to reject this amendment.

2 Aug 2016 in National Assembly:
Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. The Committee rejects the proposed amendments by the Senate. The justification is that the proposed amendment is in conflict with the provision of Clauses 8 and 10 of the Bill. Clause 8 allows both Houses of Parliament 60 days within which to conclude consideration of an agreement. The proposed New Clause 9A allows the National Assembly to consider the agreement and forward its resolutions to the Senate. Clause 9A does not specify a specific period through which the Senate should conclude its work.
