    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, for this opportunity. I join my colleagues in supporting the Motion. While the Senate Majority Leader was moving the Motion, he said that the Senate has done very well and has passed 11 Bills. My view is that we have not done very well. In today’s Order Paper, we are leaving five Bills undone. I do not understand why we could not complete these Bills so that we say that we had dealt with 16 Bills instead of 11. I hope that when we come back, we will operate in a more efficient manner and pass more Bills. It is a shame to leave Bills pending which would have benefited Kenyans. Having said, I want to applaud the leadership of the Senate. This week, we have made a lot of progress in networking with certain institutions such as the Judiciary, which we met on Monday and today, we have been consulting with the PSC. I want to confirm that the PSC is aware of the challenges facing the Senate in particular in terms of facilitation of Senators who have to cover big areas in form of their counties, but are not facilitated to move to those areas. Going by the discussions we had this morning with the PSC, Senators will see an improvement in the provision of facilities to allow them do their work more efficiently. The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate."
