Thank you, Hon. Chairlady. I agree with the Committee on this amendment. The initial draft Bill had the Director as part of the Eligibility Committee but since he is the person who will be giving the authority, we struck middle ground and agreed that he does not become part of that committee. I support this amendment.

Thank you, Hon. Chairlady. This was a brilliant amendment by the Committee because for the first time we are introducing an Eligibility Committee in the status of refugees in Kenya.

Thank you, Hon. Chairlady. Hon. Ken Okoth thinks we should say “nay” to everything. I would like to support this particular amendment because it aligns Clause 19 to the provisions of the Public Health Act which means that each time you want to create special holding centres, that particular Act already defines that. I support the amendment and agree with the Committee.

Hon. Chairlady, I would like to oppose this amendment. Under the Constitution in Article 59, the right to legal representation is a right that is accorded to almost anyone. The fact that we are asking refugees to be entitled to legal representation is simply because it is part of the constitutional guarantees. If at all the laws of Kenya will be applied, we should not apply them selectively to refugees.
