I knew Mzee as somebody who was a naturalist. At one time I saw him driving with Hon. James Orengo in town fighting for the democracy of this country. I, therefore, take this opportunity to say thank you for the work he did. Let him go and rest. I think he is a man who has worked for the democracy of this country. He will go down in history as someone who restored democracy in this country. May his soul rest in peace.

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for the chance. I take this opportunity to thank Hon. Florence Mutua for coming up with this Amendment Bill. After elections, and depending on how the party has performed, we will then be given slots. If we are more than 10, 20 or 30, then they will give you a slot.

That is the time for the party to sit ...

So, I think this amendment is timely, given the 21 days after elections so we do not have to take too long to come up with the lists. This is adequate. The party can come up with the list and forward it to the Registrar of Political Parties Secondly and lastly, with regards to the two-third gender rule, we will relook at it. If there are more ladies who would have contested in that particular constituency, then we will nominate men but, if there are more men in the party that would have been elected, we will look at the ...

I agree with this proposed amendment. Let us have the 21 days after elections so that we can look at each one of those who have contributed to the party and consider them for nomination. I agree with the case in Kisumu. She is very useful and could have been nominated and so, depending on the ability of a candidate or a person, the party should reward not necessarily because they contributed money in that case.

Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I am in the Departmental Committee on Agriculture and Livestock. Galana Kulalu is in the Departmental Committee on Agriculture and Livestock. Referring this Petition to the Ministry of Land is misplacing it when the Member is talking about development of Galana Kulalu. So, I think he should direct it to the Departmental Committee on Agriculture and Livestock, where I sit. I have even visited Galana Kulalu…
