Trade did. Did he withdraw the amendment of Clause 47? That was a wonderful amendment.

I had intervened, but you did not give me a chance to speak. I wanted to say that the amendment was wonderful because it gives business persons an opportunity to get their money back.

Thank you very much, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for the opportunity to contribute to this very important Motion. I agree with two of the amendments, but there is one which I oppose. I wholeheartedly support the amendment to Clause 20, which advocates for fair, prompt and full compensation. It protects people whose land will be damaged. Clause 30 makes the governor a member of the Mineral Rights Board and excludes the Cabinet Secretary (CS) for Devolution and Planning.

So, why those vast amounts of power?

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. Number one, as much as I would like to commend Hon. Korir for his patriotism, if we say foreign companies must give 30 per cent of their shareholding to Kenyans by birth, we will be discriminating against those who are Kenyans by registration. I could have a son who was born in the United States of America and 18 years later he moves to Kenya and becomes a citizen by registration. Number two is the fact that imposing 30 per cent local shareholding on any foreign company is very extreme. People who want to ...

Thank you very much, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I am a member of the Departmental Committee on Lands. I will not go into the details because the previous
