Hon. Speaker, first, I would like to take this opportunity to congratulate hon. Members for the Session. They have done a very good job. Secondly, I wish them a happy New Year 2015. We have just passed the Security Law to go through the Second Reading. I would like to tell hon. Members to look at this matter at the Third Reading positively and come together as both sides of the House and propose amendments that are beneficial to Kenyans. That law looks very dear to Kenyans. It looks very important.

Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I think my colleague has not read the Report. If the officers had explained the issues as required, they would not have appeared in this Report. They would have been cleared. However, he is saying that, that was election time. That does not give you powers and authority, in any Constitution or law, to misuse public funds. You must follow the law, whether it is election time or non-election time in spending public funds. Having said that - and I know he is contented - the other issue is State House, where 85 per cent of ...
