    "content": "speak our minds but Kenya's position. To totally understand the Kenyan position, we have to be very well prepared from this Parliament. I thank you. Hon. Millie Odhiambo-Mabona has represented this country at the IPU at a very high level as the President of the Committee on Human Rights of Parliamentarians. Yours truly, the Member for Dagoretti South Constituency, has also served two terms as the President of the Committee for the Respect and the Promotion of International Humanitarian Laws. The delegation that has just come from Tashkent, Uzbekistan, had two new Members: Hon. Lotee and Hon. Makali. They ably represented our country, Kenya. I support what Hon. Millie Odhiambo has said. This Parliament should seriously consider having a permanent delegation going to the IPU for institutional memory so that this glowing representation by Kenya is supported. Finally, Hon. Sunkuli and Hon. Speaker have been to the IPU. I had a good opportunity to represent Kenya in not less than six IPU meetings. This is the Parliament of Parliaments, where resolutions and conventions are even escalated to the United Nations (UN) and become laws that superintend the entire world. This opportunity given to other Members will serve this country well as a representation. The delegation is normally led by the Senate, which has a constant delegation. Can we, as the National Assembly, have a constant delegation going to the IPU? Hon. Speaker, I truly thank you for giving me the opportunity."
