    "content": "In view of these so many Bills and reports, we should strike a balance between the need to ensure that as many Members as possible contribute to every report and Bill, and guaranteeing that as many of those Bills and reports are passed. There is the need to strike a balance. How do we go about it? It is as fair as a plenary making a decision. Is it enough, for instance, that when we have had 50 or 60 Members contributing to one Bill for the presiding officer to call the Mover to reply, yet most likely you will see that there are several other Members still on the queue to contribute to the same Bill? Hon. Members, let us think through all this. There is need on one hand for us to make sure that the Bills that you as individual Members generate see the light of day, as obviously would be the intention of the Members moving them, as well as reports by various committees and Bills from the Executive through the Leader of the Majority Party. The desire to see as many of them as possible passed as well as the desire to have as many of you contribute is what seems to be the greatest challenge we have as the National Assembly of the 11th Parliament. Hon. Nyikal, do you want to add to that? Maybe you have a formula, having been a Permanent Secretary (PS)."
