    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for giving me this opportunity to also put my voice on this Committee on Implementation, which has done a very good job. I was actually wondering what is happening to some of the Bills that passed through this Parliament. We normally do not see them being implemented. I concur with my colleagues who have talked about it. The Chairman and the team, you have done a good job and you should continue. We have to monitor whether what we pass here is being implemented or not. In the case of the village elders, most of them keep on asking us whenever we go to the county about their remuneration from the Government. They require, at least, a small token. What has happened? The other day, the staff of Postal Corporation of Kenya kept on calling me and asking why we keep talking about their salaries. They asked me: “Are we getting the money or not?” So, Hon. Chairman and your team, as the House debates Bills and Motions, please, make a follow up and ensure they are implemented to the letter, for people of Kenya to have confidence in this House because we have seen several cases, including court orders which are never followed. So, what is passed in this House should be taken as law and should be implemented with the urgency that it deserves. Therefore, I support this Committee for the good work. Keep up! Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker."
