Just hold on. I can see where you are heading. If that is the direction you are taking, may I have the Member for Kericho first.

If you have seen the Report, you have seen the labour that the Committee has gone through to reduce the first reprint to the small book that you now have. I like what you say about universities and faculties of law and so on. However, you know that once a Bill has been published, we expect that all conscientious members of the public will engage with the Bill and particularly universities and the LSK. They are lawyers, are they not?

We expect them to know the law and engage with the National Assembly. I am sure they must be hearing that this Bill is going through the Second Reading. The intention of the Second Reading is so that we thoroughly interrogate it, both inside and outside the House.

Are you requesting to speak to the Sessional Papers which we are just going to after this? Is it the same for the Member for Mvita and Kipipiri?

I will expect you to find how the two of you can liaise and look for the Chairman of the Committee. Our role here is to make sure the legislation that leaves our hand is one that is helpful to both of us and the people out there. Do some work amongst the three of you; you will come to some very good arrangement. We will have the Chairman of the Departmental Committee on Justice and Legal Affairs responding to this but just a minute. For purposes of the HANSARD, there being no Member wishing to contribute, I call upon ...
