    "content": "Thank you, hon. Speaker. First of all, I would also join my other colleagues to say thank you so much for the way you have conducted the business of this House with decorum. The way you have protected us when need arose--- I also wish to say the following on the referendum issue, I would actually urge my colleagues to leave it to Kenyans to decide. Let us try to have trust in Kenyans. They are already mature, they are educated and they can actually make a decision. Therefore, let us not waste a lot of time in meetings to dissuade hon. Members from making decisions which are vital for their lives. I would also want to express my disappointment with the Departmental Committee on Energy, Communication and Information. Some resources were actually used on this Committee, which travelled to the Mombasa refinery; they sat in hotels, and came up with a report, which they have never laid on the Table of this House to date. I have actually made several requests, and have complained to the Chair, but to date that report has never been laid on the Table of this House. It is a report that was written a long time ago. They have recommendations but it appears as if somebody is stopping them from coming up with the report. It is a big disappointment for me personally and the people of Changamwe Constituency as well.
