Speaker, Sir, I beg to move the following Motion:- THAT, pursuant to Standing Order No.28, this House approves the Calendar of the House (Regular sessions) for the First Session of this Assembly is contained in the Schedule attached in the Order Paper. I would like to speak on behalf of the House Business Committee (HBC) that you chair. This is the law. This is provided for in the Standing Orders. We have to approve this calendar. It is your calendar, time-table and your document. Once the House approves it, as per the law, we need to gazette it, go further and put it in the two dailies and the parliamentary website. If you look at this calendar, we will only have a break of 11 days. I want to make it very clear that those 11 days is the period that Members of Parliament are supposed to create public participation in the budget process. You have to go to your different counties and different parts of the country and take lead in making sure that the public participates in the budget that this House is going to pass. I am sure the Budget Committee will facilitate that. This is for those out there who say Members of Parliament in this country do not work. We are telling them: âThis is our programme. This is our job evaluation.â We are going to put it in our papers so that Kenyans, including the good gracious lady Sarah Serem, can see that Members of Parliament work."
