"content": "Madam Temporary Speaker, I wish to make comments on the Statement by Sen. Kavindu Muthama, particularly with regards to the plea by Kenyans on compensation for the bombing that we all witnessed. A number of us were still young those days. We have watched and listened to experiences that Kenyans went through. The survivors have on many occasions laid out bear experiences which are sad. We cannot fathom the fact that the US Government has taken for granted the compensation that the people of Kenya expect to get from them. As someone said earlier on, the USA is friendly to the Government of Kenya. We believe that with the setting up of this particular Committee, its roles and engagements they are expected to undertake, they will come up with a report that will ensure that Kenyans are compensated the same way other countries have done in such similar incidences. With regards to the Statement by the Chairperson of the Committee on Delegated Legislation, Sen. Gataya Mo Fire, indeed, Parliament is defined by the Constitution as comprising both the Senate and National Assembly. Any legislation that affects devolved functions where the Senate is involved must come to this particular House for approval and support."
