    "content": "If some of the Bills that we pass are never implemented, our people may never take us seriously. For us to be taken seriously, and for the country to know that this is the honourable House from where all the laws that affect our country come from, they have to be implemented. When a law goes through all the processes and is assented to, there is no reason why the Executive or any other body which is supposed to implement it would say that the law is not implementable, unless it is against the Constitution of Kenya. The secretariat also guides us because we have lawyers. They guide us on the type of legislations that we make. When we get reports that some of our legislations are not implemented, that means the House is not taken seriously. I support the Report. We want to give the Committee energy so that it can continue making sure that what we discuss and deliberate in this House is implemented. That is when we will represent our people well, their views will be heard and that will influence their lives. I congratulate the Committee for the good work that it has done."
