Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, I stand to support this amendment. We all know what an indecent act is. There is no standard. An indecent act can never be anything else. All that we are doing is basically re-numbering, and also saying that an indecent act with an adult is also an offence. This will protect adults from acts of indecency!

Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, I rise to support this amendment. This amendment could not have come at a better time than today. There have been two cases where a smart lawyer has argued that, in view of the Sexual Offences Act, all the offences that were being tried under the Penal Code have been annulled. Therefore, this clarifies the position; that those prosecutions that are currently going on are legal and they should be brought to their logical conclusion. This basically clarifies the law.

Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, there is an hon. Member who is imputing improper motives on another hon. Member. What I am saying is: Let us be practical. If you look at the statistics, this is not practical. I have yet to come across a man who has been mislead that he is married by a woman. It is not possible!

Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, what I am saying is: Let us oppose Mr. Muturi's amendment, so that we can move on to the one by Ms. Ndung'u. I have yet to come across--- I would like an hon. Member to confirm to me whether there is a male hon. Member who has been mislead to believe that he is married by a woman, when he is not married.

Mr. Temporary Deputy Chairman, Sir, I stand here to support the amendment proposed by hon. Ndung'u. We must take cognisance of the fact that fraud can be committed by either sex. Therefore, it is important that we are not seen to be discriminating against any gender. Her amendment is basically giving the same punitive rights to both males and females. Nobody should have sexual relations while cheating another. We must be very clear on what their intentions are. We must pass this law, so that we also safeguard both the young girls and young boys from the sugar daddies and ...

Thank you, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, for giving me this opportunity to also contribute to our Ministry's Vote. September 5, 2007 PARLIAMENTARY DEBATES 3707 I would like to take this opportunity, first to congratulate the Minister for the way he very well laid down the policy of the Ministry of Transport. He made it very clear that, as far as traffic laws and accidents are concerned, the main purpose of the Ministry is to lay down the policy. The enforcement is in another arm of the Government. I think he made it so clear because we were getting a ...

Thank you, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir. I am shocked that a Maseno High School old boy can stand up and come up with such a point of order. That is not what we learned when we were in Maseno! We must face reality. We are seeking help from the people behind the speed governors; the remote-controlled gadgets. We are seeking help from our engineers and scientists. That is a fact. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, let me take this opportunity to thank the people behind the Ministry of Transport, the PS and his team for a job well done. ...
