"content": "I think I want to remind Members about some guide that I gave on 18th June, 2013 that actually the responsibilities of committees, when a request is made to a committee, the Chairperson or the Chairpersons, or in their absence any other Member of the Committee should acknowledge having received the request. Secondly, the committees are to prioritize the requests according to their programme and seek information from the relevant State departments and Ministries. The committee can resolve to request the attendance of the concerned Ministry officials and to inform the Members so that they can accord them the opportunity to interrogate their matters. This is because, obviously, every committee has some programme of work. The committee may not have anticipated that hon. Aduma Owuor was going to require some answer by the end of business today. Therefore, since the Members of that committee--- I do not know if hon. Aduma is a Member of that committee. However, you obviously know the amount of work that is before you. It is only fair that we should not put our colleagues under undue pressure. What is your view, hon. Aduma Owuor since you are the one making the request?"
