"content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I am Senator Harguara Godana from Marsabit County. I would like to support this Motion. My observations, as others have said, are that as we plan to oversight on the County Governments, the Committees we have should be tailored to concentrate on their functions which should appear in the way the Ministries are formed. The naming should be in line with that. The other issue is about placement of Senators in specific committees based on their preference. We have different areas of competence and this is something that we made clear to our party leaders in the Rules and Business Committee. Personally, I am a civil engineer by profession and I had asked to be placed in the Energy, Roads and Transport Committee. That is where I feel I could have contributed better. I tried to get it but I am now in the National Security and Foreign Relations Committee. Therefore, next time, when people present their areas of preference; where they think they can contribute more and be of good use to this House, this should be taken into account."
