Gitari has referred to the Lands Act, which the Cabinet Secretary is purported to have overlooked in making the said appointment. I totally agree with hon. Olago Aluoch. Impunity must end.

Deputy Speaker, I want your direction to the effect that, starting tomorrow, the Joint Committee shall sit and interrogate the Ministry, so that we can bring a comprehensive Report to this House on Wednesday morning.
