I will write to the President, through the Chief of Staff, that this said Cabinet Secretary is turning down the summonses of Parliament. I will communicate that information and make sure that all Cabinet Secretaries, heads of departments and executives attend all summonses. On the same matter, the Mining Bill is coming to Parliament, I am sure shortly. As the Committee investigates the matter in Kasigau, in Taita Taveta, I wish to assure hon. Abdalla, one of the active chairs, this time round the Minister concerned will come following a directive by His Excellency the President. He has no choice."}
