"content": "Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, thank you. I kindly seek your indulgence, as the Speaker, for me as the Chairperson of the Committee on Labour and Social Welfare. I know those have been committed, but earlier on, when I tried to react to a comment that had been made, the online system did not register. Just for the record, because I know Senators are ‘killed’ following all the Statements they ask for from our committees. There was a Statement that was sought by Sen. Wambua on the plight of former councillors. The impression is that the Committee has not taken it seriously. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I just want to clarify because he has asked about the delay. The Committee has had sittings on that matter. The last time the Cabinet Secretary (CS) for National Treasury and Planning was supposed to come to our Committee, he asked for one month so that he could get the vote from which he will pay these councillors. This is a serious matter. We agreed that there is no need for him to come and give us lip service. Sen. Wambua is a very honest man. When the CS made that request to me,"
