The Committee in its sitting of 25th July considered the matter within its mandate as established under Standing Order No.210. In view of the nature of the request, my Committee observed that the request falls within the mandate of the Departmental Committee on Lands which is, indeed, mandated to deal with matters of settlement. Because of that, we wish to seek your direction that this matter be referred to the Departmental Committee on Lands, which will be able to deal with it exhaustively. I have shared this position with my colleague and he has understood our position.

On a point of order, hon. Speaker, Sir. I wish not to interrupt my colleague, but I wish that you give directions here. There is an issue that I wish you could consider before we proceed. It appears to me that the Member is dealing with the issue. S ub judice is an issue that you need to decide on before she proceeds with what she is saying. I wish you could give direction on that issue.

Hon. Speaker, I rise to support the Motion. This is a very important Motion because if we do not extend the time of passing this Bill, then the consequences set out in the Constitution are going to follow. The delay is not because of this House but rather, it is because of the failure by those who are responsible for introducing the Bills so that they can come into the House. An example is CIC as hon. Members have said, and the various stakeholders. It will be fair that we extend time for an additional four months so that when ...

Hon. Deputy Speaker, I wanted to make a contribution. I would like your direction. Those who do not have cards, as you said, should be ahead there because we fear a situation where one would vote here and go to make a line there.

Thank you, hon. Speaker, Sir. I am not the Vice-Chair of that Committee. However, I wish that you give some directions on this issue. The Members, at the end of the day, will be seen not to have done their part and yet the problem is not even with our Committee but with the various stakeholders, the CIC and the Kenya Law Reform Commission. I plead with you that you give direction that our Committee should be able to report to this House so that we know where we are. This is a problem I know because I was in ...

Thank you, hon. Speaker, Sir. It is true, as raised by the Member, that it has indeed, taken too long for us to report back to the House. Yesterday, the Chair of the IEBC appeared before the Committee and he did not have an answer to report to us. We directed him to appear before us tomorrow to deal with the very issue raised by hon. Wamalwa. So, we will deal with it tomorrow and I believe after that, we will give a report to the House.

Thank you, hon. Speaker. I was in the Tenth Parliament, during which I sat in the Justice and Legal Affairs Committee. The truth of the matter is that we have a problem. If you ask most of the hon. Members, they will tell you that when they were looking for votes to come to Parliament, their intention was to be in this House to express the feelings of their people, so that they can represent them fully. However, as it is today, that desire is completely reduced. It is not our mistake. It is because of the way the Constitution ...
