    "content": "where if we have an urgent matter such as what Sen. Maanzo and Sen. Kinyua are putting across; the chairpersons of those specific committees can give progress reports? I do not know whether the Deputy Speaker is the chairperson of the Committee on Liaison. For example, if an urgent matter comes before the House today on Thursday, is there a way through your office and secretariat, a progress report can be given at the next sitting probably on Tuesday or Wednesday? Some of these matters are sometimes very urgent; it could be a matter of life and death. Therefore, I request under Standing Order No.1, by your powers, that the chairpersons can be giving progress reports especially on urgent and important matters. Sometimes there are issues that are urgent, but not very important. Finally, I suggest that if there are urgent issues for example, what happened in Marsabit County yesterday or the human-wildlife conflicts; is it possible for your office to give powers to these committees to have presence on the ground. Your office can facilitate them between Friday and Monday so that the people of Kenya can see that something is happening. Mr. Speaker, Sir, if you can give direction on those issues under Standing Order No.1, then the House will be efficient in terms of discharge of its duties. I thank you."
