    "content": " Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. I rise to second this Report on the inquiry into the LPG explosion in the Mradi area, Embakasi. Embakasi is where I grew up, and whenever such disasters occur, it reminds me that despite my current position of privilege, it may as well have been--- I do not want to conclude whatever I wanted to say. This is a sad affair. We must appreciate the Senate's Standing Committee on Energy for dedicating their time to look into this matter and for ensuring that a report is filed, which I hope can be fully implemented. Sen. Sifuna, there has been this debate in the House about whether to have an implementation committee or not. I have always maintained the position that we should not have an implementation committee because there is nobody better prepared for a particular matter other than the relevant committee which looked into it. Sen. Sifuna, as you know, there has been an ongoing debate in the House regarding the establishment of an implementation committee. I have consistently maintained the position that we do not need such a committee. This is because no entity would be better equipped to handle a specific matter than the relevant committee that originally undertook the inquiry into that particular issue. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Director, Hansard and AudioServices, Senate."
