    "content": "can actually log in and check. The petition tracker normally tracks the position of the petition everyday. When the Standing Order says 60 days and then after 120 days, 150 days or 180 days, the petition is still pending, this does not give us a very good name. Hon. Speaker, it has become like a public relations exercise because in committees, there are some petitions that will be taken seriously and others will be treated as if they never existed, simply because, maybe, one does not relate well with the chairman of the committee. Hon. Speaker, 180 days ago, I brought a petition to this House on behalf of the people of Chuka/ Igambang’ombe Constituency in connection with bumps that were supposed to be placed on a certain road. The petition was committed to the Departmental Committee on Transport, Public Works and Housing. In the same area, bumps were erected at different locations and members of the public wanted to know what was directed by Parliament. They are wondering what happened to the petition that was taken to Parliament. It is interesting that if a Land Rover belonging to a District Commissioner gets hit in a certain location, bumps are erected in that place immediately."
