    "content": "The hon. Member has a point there. I do appreciate that it was urgent but the Ministry has not received the Question, therefore, it cannot be answered now. Therefore, there is need for time. Nevertheless, you will also recall that when I was giving a Communication from the Chair, I indicated that the Minister would be giving a Ministerial Statement on this matter. I think it is an important Question. It is a matter that is in the minds of Kenyans but the House also appreciates the intricacies of this matter. A lot of investigations are required on this matter. I do not wish to speak on behalf of the Assistant Minister but we want to give her time to speak about it either through a Ministerial Statement or a response to the Question. I think the interest of the House and the nation is to get information from the Ministry. So, whether it will come through a Question or a Ministerial Statement, the public interest would be served. Having said that, I would like to give the Assistant Minister more time to, perhaps come, in whichever way, with the answer or a Ministerial Statement. I think the House will oblige. Mr. Odoyo will also be happy because, I am sure, that he is serving the interest of the public. If public interest can be addressed through a Ministerial Statement, I do not think the House or the hon. Member would mind. What we want is information. I think I have said enough and the Assistant Minister should now tell us when the answer or the Ministerial Statement is coming."
