So, that is a tree we have to find a cure for. We should develop good trees for the benefit of the country. I support the Committee and I congratulate it for the great job it has done. Hon. Kareke Mbiuki, my very good friend and neighbour, has done a very good job for the country.

Thank you Hon. Deputy Speaker for giving me an opportunity to support this very important Motion. Installing CCTV cameras in secondary schools and other Government installations, including in primary schools, will be a very important idea. First and foremost, they will store evidence in the event that a student performs arson or any other crime within an institution. It will be easy to identify these perpetrators, whether they are intruders to the school or students in that school. The new development is that students performing such acts are now being taken to court. In fact, some of them have complained ...

Secondly we will be able to know of other incidences which take place in schools. We have had cases of rape of both the girl-child and boy-child in schools. The perpetrators have not been found because of lack of evidence. CCTV cameras would provide such important footage and evidence and prevent such acts. The question is: Where is the budget for these CCTV cameras?. I agree with the Member for Mwea. Investigations show that it is not very expensive to install these gadgets. It would be important that we have a budgetary provision even if it is going to be ...

cases of day schools, school boards and members of the public will participate and ensure that their schools are installed with CCTV cameras. We must address the issue of the budgetary allocation. Is it the Ministry of Education, the CDF or any other system of Government to ensure that these security gadgets are in schools and any other serious Government operation like the ports where we are fighting counterfeits and contrabands? There will be footages on what happens in public places such as railway stations and many other places. Of importance for now as per the Motion are schools. This ...

Thank you, Hon. Speaker, for giving me an opportunity to comment on the first Petition where the Petitioner is seeking amendments on the Judicature Act so that the dealings with the Admiralty and Mercantile Courts generally in the country is made specific or is improved. I want to state that while the Committee looks at that, there are quite a number of laws which deal with that. Today, we even have the copyright law which is also part of the trademark issues. This is generally the area of trade. I agree with the Petitioner that this is an area we ...

Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker for giving me an opportunity to second this very important Motion. The facts have been relayed by Hon. Mbadi and the truth of the matter is that although the Government put up a budget to make sure that this area is surveyed and demarcated, there have been good meetings between the two countries and it is clear from the initial information and from the agreement between the two countries involved that Migingo Island is in Kenyan territory. This does not only apply to Migingo, but also to other islands too. The truth of the matter ...

look for a lawyer. Most of the times, the fishermen go unrepresented. Therefore, it is never clear what eventually happens in those cases. The truth of the matter is that these people are away from their country and families for a long time on a matter where it is clear there is no offence at all, yet they are arrested. Most of the time, they are taken around, tortured and eventually released far away from where they were arrested in the territory of the country. Now that the boarder is clear, it is only fair that this matter be finalised ...
