29 Nov 2023 in National Assembly:
Thank you, Hon. Temporary Chairlady. Perhaps the Chairman can clarify a little further to better my understanding. I do not know whether substituting the words that he has proposed makes sense to this amendment. Perhaps that is what the Leader of the Majority Party also wanted to clarify.

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Chairlady. Mine is just a concern that I want the Chairman to clarify. I believe he has enough experience to know that we might pass something here, and it ends up in the courts of law. How do you reconcile this Clause with Article 38 of the Constitution on political rights?

29 Nov 2023 in National Assembly:
Thank you, Hon. Temporary Chairman. I want to assist my senior because I think the term he is looking for is ‘cohabitee.’ I tend to agree with the Leader of the Majority Party because we have cases that are currently being investigated by the EACC and DCI, where assets have been hidden. Some public officers have been investigated, and their assets have been found to be registered under the names of their spouses or relatives. I think we really need to look at this provision. We should not leave it out. The matter is sub judice in Kiambu. Those who ...

29 Nov 2023 in National Assembly:
Thank you, Hon. Temporary Chairlady. I do not know why the Chairperson is deleting this clause because I liked it. It creates another level of security. I ask the Chairperson to consider his amendment and retain it as it is, even if he feels that it is provided for somewhere else. This is just another layer of protection. It also does not contradict any other provision within this Bill.
