"content": "Get the response, even if it is a Question or a request for a Statement, call the Member who made the request, show them, in fact, give him or her the copy, and discuss with the Member. Find out whether it meets their expectations. That way, we will reduce a lot of these allegations that, I am thanking the Chairperson but the Statement does not meet my expectations. You could have discussed that out there in the streets. You could go and have a cup of tea and discuss that. We would want to encourage a situation whereby, because there are no Cabinet Secretaries (CSs) here… So, even when you come and start castigating the chair of a committee, it is like you are talking to yourself because you know the chairperson is not the author of the Statement. On the part of the chairpersons, always adopt it as your practice to reach out to those who ask the Questions when you have the answers, and try to see whether the responses you have gotten, meet the expectations. Hon. (Ms.) Rehema Jaldesa says that she received a Statement at 1:35 p.m. but, at least, the Chairperson — Hon. (Ms.) Florence Mutua — had reached out to you to give you a copy of the Statement. We should encourage that because it helps us to also allow the chairpersons more time to further interrogate the various functionaries to whom Questions or request for Statements may be made. So, they say, kazi kwenu wenyeviti . I see there are too many interventions. The Member for Royal Suburbs. Many of you may not know that the Constituency called Roysambu is the Royal Suburb, like Hon. David ole Sankok knows. I can see even Hon. (Dr.) Chris Wamalwa is surprised."
