    "content": "Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, this House has a very worrying trend where we adopt very good reports, but they are simply not implemented. Therefore, I want to challenge the Government. I am very happy that the Government Responder to this report is my learned senior, the very respected and venerated Minister for Justice, National Cohesion and Constitutional Affairs. I hope that he will move quickly to give a Government commitment that this report is going to be implemented fully and expeditiously. I also challenge the Committee on Implementation of this House that when we adopt reports of this nature, we do not do that for pleasure. We do not do that because we do not have other business to transact. We adopt because it is our business to sit in this House and transact matters of national importance and respond to the cries of our people. Our people are all the people of Kenya from Loitokitok to Wajir and from Budalang’i to Kinango. Those are our people. Therefore, when we pass this report, we want to see this Committee coming back to this House in the shortest time possible to confirm to this House that, indeed, this report has been implemented and the 250 Kenyans have actually received the Kshs9.5 million they are expecting from this council."
