    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, in order to make it easier for us to transact our business, maybe the Senate can consider renting the Bomas of Kenya. We can just measure one metre and you allow all Senators to sit there and prosecute their matters instead of this issue of who is sitting where. We are here dealing with an issue of a Petition on the closure of the Lands Office in the country and nobody is listening. As we prosecute this issue of lands records, I would like the Committee that will be seized of it to work with any other Government department because I do not believe that it is only the lands office which can competently deal with this issue. Even here in this Senate, we are having problems of measuring one metre distance as recommended by the Ministry of Health. It is becoming problematic. Mr. Speaker, due to the challenges of the COVID-19, this issue of land should be looked into carefully. Maybe the Committee should consult the Ministry as well so that we are seen to be doing our work. We are not able to do our work here. So, the Committee should expand its mandate further and involve other Government departments. Finally, As I said, the Senate should consider renting the Bomas of Kenya so that we can continue working for Kenya."
