Thank you very much, Hon. Speaker. Hon. Kamuren, in financial terms, I was issuing progressive numbers we call cumulative. So, the 82 was an addition up to yesterday. That is what I am made to understand. Hon. Kamket should be properly briefed that 82 cows have gone to his constituency.

Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I know the excitement Members have. Cattle are very important. Hon. Moroto sometimes says that cattle rustling is not rustling, but going to collect vegetables for children, according to the Pokots.

Hon. Speaker, an amendment was made to Section 33(c) of the Banking Act requiring the Central Bank of Kenya to prescribe regulations, conditions on deposits or withdrawal by customers in banks and other financial institutions.

On 24th October 2018, Hon. Junet Mohammed requested for a Statement from the Departmental ...

Hon. Members, of course, I had said clearly that we do not agree at all. 4. The effect of enacting Section 33(c) is to override other requirements on deposits and withdrawals that may be set by banks for their customers in terms and conditions. 5. The amendment will conflict with the Proceeds of Crime and Anti-money Laundering Act, 2009. We could not agree at all. In the meeting with the CBK, the Committee observed that: The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposes only. Acertified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor.

1. The petitioners were challenging the constitutional authority of Parliament in making laws whereas Article 94(5) grants this authority to Parliament as the only body that has powers to make provisions that have full force of the law. 2. The CBK Governor was reluctant to implement the law due to misconception that Parliament is against regulation of the banking industry. The CBK consequently has run campaigns depicting Parliament as anti-regulation, which is not true. In the same meeting, he kept on locking his mind to the fact that Parliament only wanted to give the regulations the full force of the ...
