    "content": "Hon. Temporary Speaker, my final issue was that of Cabinet Secretaries. We have had a lot of Questions today. Although under the Standing Orders the person who asks the Questions can go to the committee that will be listening to the Cabinet Secretary, it is not properly anchored in law and we lack the benefit of enjoying and listening to answers that are given to the House by the Cabinet Secretaries because of them answering Questions in the committees and not in the House. We have a lot of things that are going wrong because Cabinet Secretaries are not in touch with this House, unlike in the previous system of governance where they used to sit in this House and would understand our issues. We have Cabinet Secretaries that have never been to the ground and have not interacted with wananchi, and they may need to hear the input of Members of this House who are elected by people from the villages, so that every time they come here, they can listen to what the wananchi, the Wanjiku and Atienos are saying."
