Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. This amendment is very important because it implies that if you conceal information, then you can actually be punished. I support it.

Thank you very much, Hon. Speaker. I want to raise a matter which is related to your Communication and it is a matter of grave concern to me. Before I do that, let me thank you for putting the record straight. I know you are at liberty not to change those figures, but because this is a House of records, you have done the right thing to make sure that the records are straight. As you were announcing those numbers; the 235 for the Ayes and the 83 for the Noes, there is an Hon. Member of this House who ...

It is on the same note that Members of his House, including ranking Members who have been elected four times, three times, twice and those who have been elected for the first time, have a casual way of doing things in this House, which I do not think is good.

I must confess that I have looked at this Report and it is good. It provides a lot of information which will help in adding value to this important Bill. I want to start by saying that this Bill is not farfetched. It has very progressive proposals, at the same time, there are areas I am not happy with as the Member of Parliament for Kitui Central and as somebody coming from Kitui County. ...

All said and done, we are talking about promoting peace and unity of this country. I do not see us achieving that by Kenyans having no sense of belonging that we belong to this country. The more we remain divided as a country, the more we are likely to continue losing resources. After every election, there will be chaos. We will waste time, businesspeople will not do their work and as a result of that, we will also be losing resources. I want to in some extent talk about the financial issues captured in this Bill which are very progressive. ...
