Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, we have always said that this is a House of rules and procedure. Hon. Njoroge Baiya who was seconding the Motion did not actually do that. He needs to put that on the HANSARD.

Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, before you took the Chair, I was the one speaking, then the previous Speaker said that he would give an opportunity to that side then I would be next. I do not know where the mix-up has come from.

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for giving me this chance. First and foremost, I want to thank the people at the Office of the AG and Department of Justice, who were involved in the formulation of this policy. This is a work well done. In many jurisdictions, normally there are sessional papers to guide legislation. This should be the practice going forward. More importantly, we have had a lot of violation of human rights in this country. This Sessional Paper provides a clear framework for implementation.

We might come from different backgrounds and associations, but we are all equal before the eyes of God. Therefore, this policy is critical and ...

Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, we are dealing with funds. I have done a cost-benefit analysis on this amendment. Hon. Lessonet’s argument does not make sense in terms of the benefits. Suppose we have a rogue chief executive officer and he colludes with one guy? Within a short period of time, all the funds will be gone. We have seen the issue of the IFMIS. If the IFMIS recognises one person, we can do it procedurally for the chief executive officer and two other people to sign. The IFMIS can then recognise whoever has been appointed to operate the system. In ...
