    "content": "Hon. Members, allow me to go back to Order No. 3 and convey a Message from the Senate on approval of appointment of a Member to the Parliamentary Service Commission. Pursuant to the provisions of Standing Order No. 41, I wish to report to the House that I have received a Message from the Senate regarding the approval of appointment of a member to the Parliamentary Service Commission under Article 127(2)(d) of the Constitution. In the Message, the Speaker of the Senate conveys that the Senate, on 28th February 2023, considered the Report of the Standing Committee on Justice, Legal Affairs and Human Rights on the proposed appointment of Hon. Johnson Muthama as a Commissioner of the Parliamentary Service Commission pursuant to Article 127(2)(d) of the Constitution, Section 9(c) of the Parliamentary Service Act, and Standing Order 77(3) and by a resolution, approved the appointment of Hon. Johnson Muthama, as a Commissioner of the Parliamentary Service Commission. Hon. Members, you may recall that on Wednesday, 15th February 2023, this House approved the appointment of Hon. Johnson Muthama as a Commissioner of the Parliamentary Service Commission, following which I conveyed the fact to the Senate for concurrence. In this regard, the approval by the Senate of the said nominee concludes the bicameral appointment process contemplated under Article 127 of the Constitution. As a matter of fact, Hon. Johnson Muthama has already been sworn in, and is discharging his duties as a commissioner. For the record, I have already said that I have sworn him in and he is already discharging his duties. I thank you. Hon. Members although it is little late, there were two schools in the Public Gallery. I am told that they have left, but we should acknowledge Sawagongo High School from Gem, Siaya County, and Nairobi River Primary School from Embakasi West. I am told that they have left, but on your behalf and my own behalf, we welcome them to the House of Parliament and I am sure they are still within the precincts. Next Order."
