    "content": "will be interesting to visit public galleries in the county assemblies to see whether there are any people who go there. The Committee on Implementation is very critical when it comes to Bills and Motions and ensuring that they have been implemented. More needs to be done in terms of putting in place a system of giving quick feedback. Given that this is our third year, we would like to know, for example, some of the Bills and Motions that we discussed. It would be good for us, maybe during our kamukunjis, to have a sense of how much achievement we have made on the ground; this is in terms of the level of implementation and whether that has happened at a successful rate. Let me just go back again to the issue of devolved governance because I forgot a point. We need to deal with the issue of conflict resolution. Too much time has been spent on squabbles. People are thinking about 2017 and talking of possessing seats. If you express interest in vying for those seats, you automatically become their enemy. Such people need to know that a seat becomes theirs only when they have been elected or nominated to that position. The conflict that keeps coming up because of power struggles has really taken us back. We need to have more initiatives to address this issue. I commend the Senators who have been nominated to serve in various committees because they are up to the task. Let us bring the experiences that we have had over the three years. I am sure we will successfully push the agenda for these committees to the next level. I hope that the Committee on Delegated Legislation will look at the Bills and how they will be implemented. This is the year, and Kenyans are watching. Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir."
