I want to confirm that, indeed, even by just looking at me, you can easily tell that I am properly briefed concerning the details and the usage of this microphone. However, I also wanted to say something about the elections that were held yesterday by the Departmental Committee on Defence and Foreign Relations. On Saturday, while I was visiting my constituents, the great people of Kisumu City, I received a communication from the Office of the Clerk alerting me and, of course, mobilizing me to appear in Parliament Buildings, Committee Room Number 9 at 1.00 p.m. on Tuesday - which is today - for the election of the Chairman and the Vice- Chairman."}
