    "content": "Hon. Members, I am aware that we may wish to have matters of that nature investigated by a Committee. However, I think that a quick and immediate response would be appropriate if the Cabinet Secretary responds. That is because part of your request is what the Government is doing. We have already agreed as a House that we do not want the Chairpersons of Committees to tell us what the Government is doing. It is not their business. Since the Chairpersons of Committees are not sitting in Government, the person who would answer that particular aspect of the question would be the Cabinet Secretary. She should tell us what the Government is doing, especially with regard to protecting or implementing the Ndung’u Report. I do appreciate that the matter, as you say, is urgent. It will not be fair for public property to be disposed of. I would direct that the matter--- You liaise with the Leader of Majority Party so that he can draw the attention of the Cabinet Secretary responsible. We have already seen her ably responding to questions. She can give her response either by way of an answer or even by way of a report as contemplated in Article 123(4)(b) of the Constitution. I think the best way to travel on this one would be if it is channeled through the Office of the Leader of Majority Party because, as you say, the concern will be public resources or public property in danger of disposition. I do not know whether the Leader of Majority Party is in a position to give an undertaking as to how soon that can happen. I also agree with you that it is the kind of situation that we used to have in the past by way of Questions by Private Notice which were addressed as urgent matters. Leader of Majority Party!"
