    "content": "Actually, you may have raised an extremely important concern. Unfortunately, I do not have full details for now. Probably, the first thing is for us to get to know whether the content of Questions previously raised by other Members are the same as for this one done by the Hon. Member for Kiambaa. If that be the case we will, of course, have to take some administrative measures to make sure that the Questions that are asked must not be the same. They could be similar, but cannot be the same. For example, if you are asking a Question about electricity, you could be doing a Question that is similar to the one done by your colleague Member here but it is specific to your case. So, we will want to see what the issues are. Probably, we want to know the three Questions, have a look at them then make a decision on it. In terms of what you raised about the timelines, that is another genuine concern. I know some of the Committees have a handful and it is a bit difficult for them to process Questions quickly. For example, I note that the Departmental Committee on Administration and National Security has too much on their plate. Sometimes the Departmental Committee on Education and Research and others also have much to work on. So, we will want to see whether it is a question of the fact that the Committees are being slow on it, or that they have too much work. So we will sort out that in due course. In the meantime, I had not made a decision on what to do with the Question by Manje. I order that it be deferred and be brought another time."
