Hon. Cheptumo, you know when you are amending, you need to put some specifics because he is talking of Section 17(f) and yet as per the Order Paper, there is nothing.

It is about the same thing, Hon. Speaker. While you were away last week, we debated the Health Laws (Amendments) Bill. We realised that Members come here with conflicts of interest. It happened to the pharmaceutical laws. As we debate this Bill, it is also good for the Members to show…

I want to thank you, Hon. Speaker. It is good to note that you are digital even if you are miles away. This House cannot veto the Committee’s recommendations. It does not mean that when you have public participation and a Committee has given a recommendation that it is automatic for it to be passed. You should convince the entire House to go with you but it is not guaranteed. I expected Hon. Maanzo, who is a very good lawyer and a Member who is serving his second term, to know this.

We also have issues to do with land in Trans Nzoia. They are not just confined to the Coast Region alone. People cannot continue being squatters on their own land. We have many squatters in Trans Nzoia. So, we request the Government, through the Ministry of Lands and the relevant departmental Committee, to move with speed to ensure that people get title deeds. Land is a factor of production. Once they are done with the Coast Region, let them come quickly to Trans Nzoia County where we have many squatters who also need title deeds.
