    "content": " Sen. Murungi, I am saying you are right to the extent that the Chair expects the Senate Majority Leader to handle Government business in the House. But it has also been pointed out to me, being specific as Sen.(Dr.) Khalwale to the Department of Education, that gives the Senate Majority Leader an opportunity to designate an hon. Senator to be in charge of that kind of portfolio. The Senate Majority Leader should be at liberty either to respond himself or assign any other hon. Senator from the Government side, of course, to that particular responsibility. Indeed, the Chair of the Committee on Education, Information and Technology can also respond to that Motion. So, our system is more flexible than it was previously. It gives the Senate Majority Leader a lot of leeway. Of course, the House expects whatever proceedings, recommendations and resolutions are made, that it is the responsibility of the Senate Majority Leader to ensure that is communicated to Government."
