    "content": "As a result of this and many other revelations that have come out, I would like to urge colleagues that while we laud and appreciate the time the Committee took to do this work, it is not satisfactory. I do not know what Sen. Orengo said. I wish he were here. Maybe you will guide us. What mechanism is there to have a report as the record of the House, yet not pass it? Let us be real with each other. I have read allegations against PKF Kenya. We have done further inquiries and have seen that there is more that meets the eye. Not only were they not single sourced, but they were not even hired. I have worked in audit firms since the age of 19 years. I worked at PricewaterhouseCoopers (PWC). I know what you mean when you talk about lease versus buy analysis. That is not what it was contracted to do, yet if you hear the submissions that have been made by the Committee---. I would really like to know from the Committee, why is it that the bark was louder than the bite? If it is for us to come and rubberstamp on behalf of the people of Nairobi, who require proper health services throughout the city, I cannot be part of such a process. I urge Members to fail this Report and use it as just preparatory material, or an introductory preface of the real work that will be done by this House. Mr. Speaker, Sir, using Standing Order No.58, so that you do not delay the process- --. When I go to the HANSARD of this Parliament, sometimes I see reports of this House from 1965, and they are worth the paper they have been written on. You can say that this is truly a Report of the Parliament of Kenya. I urge the Committee to either seek a new mandate or to seek an extension, but not to allow us to be a conveyor belt in this love letter that we are reading. Based on the recommendations, I oppose. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only.A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate."
