    "content": "you look at the workload given by the Constitution between the two Houses, you will find that there is too much workload here. We have been sitting here for the last three days as the Committee of Supply from morning to evening. I am sure the Chair of the PSC, Hon. Speaker, Commissioners and Hon. Keynan is here. We have not elected our Members to the PSC to go and eat mandazi and enjoy themselves. We have put them there to ensure that there is equity between the two Houses. So, the Chair should declare as he moves the amendments. He needs to tell the House how much he is allocating to the Senate’s monitoring and evaluation budget. He needs to tell us why he wants to empower the Senators to go round their counties and not empower the women representatives, single constituency Members and nominated Members of Parliament. We must know that reason. Why do you want to empower certain people? Parliament must be the House that gives equity in resource distribution and in law making."
