    "content": " Mr. Speaker, Sir, paragraph 5 states: \"The responsibility to verify facts in a statement cannot be delegated as the Vice- President tried to do when he testified before the Committee. The Committee was concerned that even after more information emerged, the Vice-President has never taken the liberty to apologise\". I want to draw your attention to Section 4 of the Kenya National Assembly Powers and Privileges Act. It provides that statements that we make before this House cannot be subject of any form of investigation, be it civil or criminal. The Committee decided to draw conclusions on a matter that it should have referred to investigation. I do not think that any body which is vested with powers to investigate would ignore that particular provision of the Kenya National Assembly Powers and Privileges Act, Section 4."
