"content": "Order, Chairman of the Departmental Committee who is also the Member for Nyaribari Chache, I am aware that I gave firm directions for you to table the Report on the NHIF today. I want to commend you and your Committee for the industry you have demonstrated in ensuring that you comply with that direction; I note that you have been able to complete your investigation and compile your Report under what, I am aware, are very difficult circumstances and quite sensitive. I want to really congratulate you for steering those murky waters and being able to come up with a final report. However, as I intimated to you earlier on before we started this sitting, our practice is that a report is not tabled in the House until the Speaker has had an opportunity to look at it and approve its tabling. The Speaker does not approve the report; rather he approves the tabling of the report. I approve the tabling of a report after applying the rules to satisfy myself that the report is procedurally correct, and that the content of it is in conformity with both our Standing Orders and, significantly, our Constitution. So, because of that, I will defer the tabling of the Report to Tuesday afternoon at 2.30 p.m."
