    "content": " I did that, Hon. Temporary Speaker. The names which we have received so far and approved are 124. Today, we are approving 68 of them. I urge the Members who have not submitted their names that time is not on their side. It is incumbent upon Members to push their fund managers where they are so that we can finish this matter. The last group we shall be having as a committee will be tomorrow and if you miss on that possibly, you will wait for next year. We want to agree with all the Members that this is something of utmost importance and we need also the legal minds of this House to help us to move forward in terms of the interpretation of the ruling of the Supreme Court so that we can get our funds as early as possible. We want the Committee on Justice Legal and Affairs (JLAC) and others so that everybody is comfortable in this House. Since we have come all the way to the position that we are in, Kenyans cannot afford to do harambees again, which is an old way of doing things to build classes, buy desks in schools and pay bursaries for our students and pupils. We need this money and, therefore, let us unite as a team in this House and work out on an interpretation of this so that we can access those funds. I beg to move and ask Hon. Chepkonga to second this Motion. Thank you."
