    "content": "Thank you, Temporary Deputy Speaker. I am also happy to stand in support of the nominees to the Parliamentary Service Commission. I support them at this time when we are about to vote in the Supplementary Budget, that is, Kshs5 billion. We are now hoping that with the fully constituted Parliamentary Service Commission, funding services will be availed. Those of us who are serving as Chairpersons and Vice-Chairpersons are still waiting for offices. More importantly, I also hope that the Commission will take time to hire good lawyers for the litigation that has been driven against the House. I think it is important that the House is properly defended. Some of the orders we are seeing is simply because the Commission does not send lawyers to court. The Senate does not appear; the National Assembly does not appear and the Attorney-General has never been a good lawyer. If we could get the Commission in a fully constituted way to take due action on cases against Parliament and Members, that will be important. I support this Motion."
