    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, let me not quote the media. I want to request the Chair to clarify that many hon. Members have travelled, indeed, and many of the trips that we undertake, I particularly, have been paid for by people other than Kenyan taxpayers. Recently, I was in the USA to participate in the Elections. My trip there, alongside you and Mr. Thuo, was paid for fully by the USA State Department. Last week I went on Parliamentary duty to a meeting of the Whips of all East African countries, and the trip was also fully paid for by CIDA. I think to make unnecessary claims against hon. Members tarnishes their names, the Offices of Mr. Speaker and the Clerk of the National Assembly. We want to request you to, at least, issue some guidelines that the media can use to operate in relation to us as opposed to tarnishing our names."
