"content": "Hon. Speaker, Sir, I rise to support this Motion as amended. It is unfortunate that the bicameral Parliament of Kenya wants to have their cake and eat it. We are going to have the PAP opening and forming committees without the participation of the able Members of the Kenyan Parliament. As it is, and reading from the mood of the House, I wish to support this Motion as amended so that these capable Members, who now have a good balance, because we have the old guards like hon. Shebesh and the new blood, can represent Kenya It is unfortunate because of what has happened to our brothers across the road, but if you look at the numbers - I am referring to the Senate - it is justifiable that the National Assembly takes four out of five and our brothers can take only 20 per cent of those positions. So, I support the Motion as amended and hope that we are all going to support, so that we can have Kenya represented in the PAP."
