"content": " Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. I wish to comment on two Statements. First, is the Statement by Sen. Chute on ‘Bunge Towers’. When I left the Commission, we had done everything that was needed for Members to occupy that House. The only thing remaining was the procurement of furniture. It has been one-and-a-half years after the present Parliamentary Service Commission (PSC) came to office. I do not seem to see any serious movement in the building. It would be of interest to know that the term of a Member of Parliament is important. Some Members believed they would get an office in that building when they came here in 2017. Unfortunately, this did not happen. Many of them used to challenge me in the corridors of Parliament, to allow them to occupy the building. This might be the only thing they would show their children that one time they were Members of Parliament. The Kenyatta International Conference Centre (KICC) is a host for everyone. Unless you serve in leadership to have an office here in Parliament Buildings, the rest of the buildings are difficult to occupy. The Continental House does not have the offices that you want to show. Members sit together with the secretary, the bodyguard and the rest of the secretariat, in one room. It is not conducive to how Members are conducting their duties."
