Likewise, in the Immigration Office, the Principal Immigration Officer is the collector of receiver relating to passports, birth certificates and other documents. There is no way the Cabinet Secretary can know how many births were recorded today and what was received. That is a daily function of that department. After all the revenue is collected, it is paid into the Consolidated Fund. So, we are saying that, for practical purposes, what hon. Ogindo has proposed through this amendment is not possible.

Madam Temporary Deputy Chairlady, again, it was realized that three months may be too short so we added one month to make four because of the various documents that are required to be submitted . This is to give more time to the commissions.

87 (1) (a)“in a state corporation; or” Madam Temporary Deputy Chairlady, again, this is basically clarifying that you cannot have a Government-linked corporation. It is either a State corporation or it is not. So, we are saying that any investment referred to which would make it into a State corporation.
