    "content": " Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker, I beg to reply. It is very important we understand that we must give due respect to Members. We appoint you to Committees because we have done due diligence and know who fits where and who can do better. For those who have been appointed to serve in the Sessional Committees, just know that we know exactly why we put them there. This is both from the Minority and Majority sides. For the record, I wish to say that we trust every Senator to do their job well. We give every Senator same opportunities, so that we can represent all the counties. Sessional Committee vote for their chairpersons and officials every year. Sometimes it takes us to retain the same people, especially for institutional memory, so that they can remember and keep the records for the forthcoming year. I appreciate those who have contributed. May I ask Members that as you vote, remember the CPAIC is a very important Committee. I have laid maybe 200 different papers here on accounts. Therefore, there is so much work for them. Whoever is going to be the Chairperson of this Committee, knows that they have to do extra work. On the Delegated Legislation, there are so many Bills that require secondary legislation. When they elect the Chairperson and the Vice-Chairperson, they will know that there is a lot of work. We have a few months. Our time is so short, that you may have to work overnight to make sure that you bring all the regulations and the secondary legislations in place. I thank everybody who has participated and contributed. I still have to work hard to train one Sen. Cherargei. That is my duty. I will have to do that often so that he can be specific and work hard. He is a very diligent young Senator. I know he will be brought back here so that he can gain the experience that I have gained over the years. With those few remarks, I beg to reply and thank you all. May we make sure that this Senate proceeds regularly."
