Thank you, Hon. Chairlady. I do not want to comment on what we are discussing. I just wanted to inform my good friend, Hon. Gikaria that indeed we have paid the Kshs5 million we legislated. I come from the constituencies that are affected by animals. We have paid. In fact, I handed over two cheques of Kshs10 million two months ago to the residents of Narok West.

Hon. Chairlady, I totally agree with my colleagues here that let us support this amendment. It is a very straightforward issue. Let us not over-legislate. Instead of putting it in the Act, we can put this in the regulations and it will take care of your concern. We plead with our good friend because he did a very good job, but on this one, we are supporting the Chair because we think that the regulation will take good care of this matter without making a big deal out of it. I am saying I support the Chair. I am very ...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman. I support Hon. David Eseli because what we are trying to do here is giving space. Let them prepare their own timetable. I do not see any problem with this. And I do not think it is going to---

What I was saying is this: I do not think it will change much, even if we put this regulation because the law is already clear. So, I support Hon. David Eseli.

Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, I support the Chairman. I was wondering why they had proposed four years instead of three years. Other corporations go with the three years’ requirement.

Yes, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady. As simple as it appears, the Chairman needs to come out clearly on why he is changing that. We all know that veterinary services are devolved. So, I do not know why he wants to change this.

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for also giving me this opportunity to support this Motion. A lot has been spoken about these regulations and it is because we are nearing elections and everybody seems to want to know what is going to happen. For a long time, people have feared elections in this country because of rigging. What we have done this time around will go a long way to help the IEBC do its work. We have invested a lot of money in the IEBC. We wish them good luck and support them to ensure that they do ...

One of the issues that these regulations has brought forward is the registration of prisoners. For a long time we have not given prisoners an opportunity to register and vote. This is the case and yet that is their right as enshrined in our new Constitution. I think this will go a long way in giving them the right to vote. The IEBC verification is very important. All Kenyans will be given time to verify the registers in various polling stations and when the time comes, we will all go to the polling stations knowing our names are there and ...
