    "content": "(Sen. (Prof) Kindiki): Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I beg to move the following Motion:- THAT, pursuant to Standing Order Nos. 177 (1) and 178, the Senate approves the nomination by the Rules and Business Committee of- a) Sen. G.G. Kariuki to the Standing Committee on Finance, Commerce and Budget; b) Sen. Ben Njoroge to the Standing Committee on Labour and Social Welfare to replace Sen. G.G. Kariuki; and, c) Sen. Hosea Onchwangi to the Sessional Committee on Implementation to replace Sen. Ben Njoroge. This Motion does two things: One, to acknowledge that, initially, the Jubilee side had nominated Sen. G.G Kariuki to sit in the Labour and Social Welfare Committee. Sen. G.G Kariuki did not take up that position because he wanted to serve in the Finance, Commerce and Budget Committee. By the time his decision not to serve that Committee was reached, we had already approved the Motion on committees. This Motion, therefore, is to allow Sen. G.G Kariuki to serve in the Finance, Commerce and Budget Committee, in which case he will be replaced in the Labour and Social Welfare Committee, as proposed in this Motion, by Sen. Njoroge. Finally, to create a balance, now that Sen. Njoroge will be in the Finance, Commerce and Budget Committee, we have decided, as the Jubilee side, that Sen. Njoroge relinquishes his position in the Committee on Implementation. We have added Sen. Hosea Onchwangi, who is not in this House."
