Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, that one makes sense, but it is parts “(a)” and “(b)” that I have an issue with.

Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, I support the amendment. We discussed this issue in the Departmental Committee. I support it because I believe that it will bring order in the management of our national parks. The KWS would just decide to gazette a national park or national reserve. So, it is good for such declarations to be approved by Parliament. I beg to support.

THAT, clause 70 be amended by inserting the following new subclause immediately after subclause (2)— “(2A) The Service shall, in every year, audit the number of Government trophies in possession of the Government and publish the results of the audit in the Gazette”. You will agree with me that over the years, we have not known how many trophies we have in our wildlife stores. You will remember when His Excellency the retired President Moi was given a pile of tasks to light, and the same thing applied to President Kibaki, but we do not know how many were left ...

Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for giving me this opportunity. I must say that I personally went to congratulate the Committee for the wonderful work that they have done. I want to tell this august House that people in my county, in particular, are today celebrating the passage of this Bill. For more than 12 years, this Bill has been gathering dust on some shelves of this House. So, making the passage of this Bill by this House a reality is something that I personally treasure. People in my county today are watching us passing this Bill. The electronic ...

To be honest with you, most of us made it to this House after promising our constituents that we would make sure that this Bill is passed by this House. Looking at the issues that this Bill seeks to address, you will appreciate that they are special to our people, particularly the issue of compensation. The hon. Members of this House have probably seen that most of us have not sat here throughout to go through legislation of Bills. Today, I have learnt a lot in terms of amending Bills. After five years, I may not be a lawyer of ...

Thank you hon. Speaker, Sir, for giving me this opportunity. I also rise to support the Bill because when you look at what has been happening with our police force and the Commission, you will realize that there has been a slow down or people not knowing what they are supposed to do.

Hon. Speaker, Sir, I am part of this Committee. I remember when we called the Chairman of the Police Service Commission, everybody read the Bill differently because everybody wanted more powers. Let me say that the issue of the command of the police or any force needs clarity. What was happening was that there was no clarity. I must say that we did a lot of good work and we put in a lot of hours to rectify that anomaly. This House should appreciate what the Committee has done because had we left this Bill to go the way it ...
