"content": "Kirinyaga and Taita Taveta County Government. I want to assure counsel for His Excellency the Governor, Mr. Ndegwa, that I did even speak on the issue of Article 37 because it is always good to accord equal rights under the law to each and every individual. As the Senators retreat to exercise their right to vote, this is a matter that they should think about very carefully. They should not be influenced by the report. They should look at it objectively and exercise their own constitutional right to vote. We have been told about this being a Pontius Pilate moment. Again, I leave it to the conscience of each individual Senator. We have made our observations in the report. Mr. Speaker, Sir, we know the provisions of Article 43 of the Constitution and what it says. As Committee, we grappled a lot, because the article says that every person has right to the highest attainable standards. We asked ourselves, what is the highest attainable standard? As I said, it was not easy for the Committee to pass a verdict."
