Proceeding contribution from Geoffrey Clifton-Brown (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 17 January 2008. It occurred during Topical debate on Kenya.


Kenya

The hon. Lady is absolutely right: the only lasting solution to the crisis is fresh elections and, as the hon. Member for City of York (Hugh Bayley) says, they should be held relatively soon. Does she not agree that both the parties concerned should use this interim period to reach a joint agreement on the composition of the electoral commission of Kenya, so that whoever wins the election will buy into the commission's processes, and so that the elections can be seen as free and fair?
