    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I happen to be one of the people whose Questions have taken long to be responded to. Unfortunately, at times, you get the invites through SMS and you are not within Nairobi. I am also a Member of the Procedures and House Rules Committee and we need to make an amendment to that Standing Order 42 (c) (5). It should not just end at dropping of the Questions and that ends the issue. We should also make the Chairs of the Committees to be fair to the Members who have asked the Question. It should be upon them to make sure that the Member's Question is responded to. This is because, when we ask these Questions, we are not asking them in vain. We are asking them because of certain circumstances which we expect that at the end of the day must be addressed. Most of the issues we raise here are key issues affecting our constituents and it is part of our constitutional mandate as representatives of our people. So, I think there needs to be balance."
