    "content": "Hon. Speaker, on the question of the ownership of Integrity Center, this is not a question that the Committee has been blind to. This is a matter that has come before the Committee. It is a matter that the Committee has had due regard to. If you look at our Report on Page 49, you will see that the CEO, Mr. Halakhe Waqo undertook to provide a full report on the ownership of the building in two weeks’ time. I confirm to this House that the Committee is looking at the question of the ownership of the Integrity Centre. If you look at the allegations on one of the Commissioners, they actually relate to the questions of the ownership of Integrity Centre. However, I wish to confirm that the removal of Commissioners is the subject of the Petition that we have before us. The question of ownership of Integrity Centre is an operational issue on the Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission. The Committee has even recommended to the Commission to consider finding alternative place for doing its own business. Under Standing Order No. 216(5), we have the functions of a Departmental Committee which shall be to investigate and inquire into all matters relating to the assigned Ministries and departments as they may deem necessary, which is already happening. The Committee is seized of the question of the ownership of Integrity Centre, and we have received documents that are with us. As for today, let us confine ourselves to the Petition on the removal of the Chairperson, Mr. Mumo Matemu and the Vice- Chairperson, Ms. Irene Keino. That is the Petition we have and that is what we will deal with today."
