My point is the Member is irrelevant because he is actually contributing to the main Motion yet he should be contributing to the amendment. This is what Members will be doing – taking advantage of contributing to support the amendment when in fact they are contributing to the main Motion. We have been lining here to contribute to the main Motion.

I want to support and congratulate Hon. Nyikal for this amendment. In the text by which this thing appears, the amendment in the Bill seeks to bring two persons whose knowledge and experience it considers necessary. The Muongozo arrangement now has moved from the big discretion to Cabinet Secretaries. It were better if the Cabinet Secretary was circumscribed to certain merits, skills or experiences that a person may have to be able to perform the functions we are talking about. To the extent that it is so general and open, I think it is an amendment which can easily be ...

A time comes when you want to go by what the law says. I want to talk to my learned friend, Hon. Nyikal. He is very learned because he has gone to school longer than me. I think the Member for Suba North did not look through to see the exact portion of the amendment. As has been said by the Member for Homa Bay, in some way, we are pushed by other considerations and not the law. Just allow me because this is the first time I am agreeing with the Leader of the Majority Party. On what the ...

Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Member for Suba North intends to delete these provisions. We are here for a good legislation. If the deletion were to pass, then of course the proposals by the Chair would fall aside. Because Hon. Millie did not attend the harmonisation process as she said yesterday, she may not have been conversant with some of the things that the Committee discussed with the stakeholders. In the interest of the House, would I ask the Chair to explain the purpose of his amendment? I am willing to withdraw what is not reasonable or pursue what I think ...

I know that Hon. Millie Odhiambo is concerned about Section 10(b) and (c). This is what I want to understand if the Chair of the Committee has grasped that amendment. The amendment is taking away the application of the Act from Sexual Offences Act and Female Genital Mutilation. This is where the Member for Suba North is very concerned.

I needed your guidance. Having dropped my amendments it therefore means that subsection 3(3) does not have an amendment. What the Chair is speaking to is the new amendment. I think we need to dispose of this as though there is no amendment and then move to what the Chair seems to be suggesting. Let us vote as if it there is no amendment. Then, the Chair can address us on new subsection 10 which he wants to insert. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposes only. Acertified version of this Report can be obtained ...
