Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, it is true this matter is emotive because it was in the newspapers that the Chairman, Mr. Swazuri said he was ready to defend this up to The Hague that he did the right thing. From that point you cannot say that the buck stops at the Chair of the Commission. We want some specific recommendations so we can follow this person specifically. We do not want this generalisation and vagueness. This is what I am saying. They should have been specific and said Swazuri is implicated in this matter and he should step aside. Not ...

Kiminini, FORD-K): Thank you, Hon. Speaker. The Departmental Committee on Lands should move with speed, so that we do not waste a lot of time. The issue of land is not only in Kiambu County. It is also in the area where I come from, Trans-Nzoia County. We have a lot of issues in Meso Farm, Chepchoina Farm and Tawai Farm. We are requesting the Departmental Committee on Lands to go countrywide, so that we can resolve this matter once and for all.

Hon. Speaker, this is a serious matter. For heaven’s sake, the Speaker of the National Assembly, by all chances, is senior than the CJ. The Constitution is very clear: In the absence of the President, the Deputy President takes charge. In case the DP is incapacitated in one way or another, the person who becomes the Commander-in-Chief is none other than the Speaker of the National Assembly. So, you do not have to be the CJ of the Judiciary.

We do know very well that the three arms of the Government are guided by the principle of separation of powers. I think Hon. Junet was referring to this matter which was taken to court by Apollo Mboya and there are some specific clauses, particularly of the Parliamentary Powers and Privileges Act, which were set aside. It is similar to what happened to a Bill that was brought here in the 11th Parliament by Hon. Kaluma. The core business of the court is to interpret the law. We are here to enact law. The Executive is there to implement law. ...

Thank you, Hon. Speaker. The Member for Laikipia is still learning and is a first timer. Obviously, there is no way Hon. Ichung’wah can second this Motion. You are not going to dictate what I say.

As much as we want to discuss matters of national importance, this Bill is of much importance because it provides horizontal sharing of money among the counties. We have serious issues to discuss. I want to oppose the three minutes and propose five minutes for every other member contributing because of the corruption matters in this country.
